[PATCH] dm: fix stacking of geometry limits for thinp and cache

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

 



Do not blindly override the queue limits (specifically io_min and
io_opt).  Allow traditional stacking of these limits if io_opt is a
factor of each target's block size.

Without this patch mkfs.xfs does not recognize these target provided
limits as a useful geometry (e.g. raid) so these hints are ignored.
This was due to setting io_min to a useless value.
