Thanks. verbose mode exposed more parts of code in device mapper code that I had to implement in order for my new target type "dyre" to get identified. My current problem is when there is an ioctl call, I am getting an error with errno set to 22, which corresponds to "Invalid argument". Could you please tell me where can I get the kernel part of the code which handles the device mapper target? similar to "striped" target, I think I need to add code there for my "dyre" target. Thank you again for your help.
