I'd like to attend LSF/MM 2016 to participate in any discussions about redesigning how device-mapper multipath operates. I spend a significant chunk of time dealing with issues around multipath and I'd like to be part of any discussion about redesigning it. In addition, I'd be interesting in disucssions that deal with how device-mapper targets are dealing with blk-mq in general. For instance, it looks like the current dm-multipath blk-mq implementation is running into performance bottlenecks, and changing how path selection works into something that allows for more parallelism is a worthy discussion. But it would also be worth looking into changes about how the dm blk-mq impementation deals with the mapping between it's swqueues and hwqueue(s). Right now all the dm mapping is done in .queue_rq, instead of in .map_queue, but I'm not convinced it belongs there. There's also the issue that the bio targets may scale better on blk-mq devices than the blk-mq targets. If there happen to be any GFS2 related discussions, I'd be interested in those as well.
