[PATCH 1/7] devmapper: do not flush I/O for DM_DEVICE_CREATE

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

 



DM_DEVICE_CREATE loads a new table, so there cannot be any
I/O pending. Hence we should be setting the 'no flush'
and 'skip lockfs' flag to avoid delays during creation.
