[PATCH v5 11/13] dm snapshot: redirect accesses to origin if merging snap invalidated

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@xxxxxxxxxx>

If we are merging an invalidated snapshot, redirect all accesses to the
origin device.  This is safe because snapshot_merge_process() will
stop_merge() if the merging snapshot becomes invalid.

Allowing the origin device to remain functional is important because it
may contain the root filesystem.
