I agree, and am aware. The layers that have needed to worry about properly differentiating between these higher level returns from SCSI do (e.g. dm-mpath). But it is pretty rare for bio-based DM targets to differentiate between error codes. Not saying that is right, just that is how things stand. Could be there is room for improvement in places. -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
