Thanks for your response. And I have a further question. Do you mean making a patch against rc4 in linux-next is not preferred? I think if doing so, the patch will be unable to apply to linux-dm which I believe one going to be suggested to Linus. I think I am going to make my patch against v3.11-rc3 in linux-dm. But, patching on kernel as fresh as possible would make sense more. -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
