To be clear: that concern/question was prompted from having taken a quick glance at lwn's kernel summit "KS2010: ABI status for tracepoints" coverage: http://lwn.net/Articles/412685/ But in that article it clearly states: "there are to be no stable tracepoints in drivers or filesystems". Not sure where that leaves tracepoints for the block layer. Anyway, seems tracepoint kABI is likely a concern for the future (not the immediate future). So this change would be nice to get in before there is a new tracepoint kABI-aware sheriff in town. Mike -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
