The first part I could see, but I still want to make it conditional in some way as nvme is going into deeply embedded setups, and I don't want to carry the weight of the ANA code around for everyone. The second I fundamentally disagree with. And even if you found agreement it would have to be in a separate patch as it is a separate feature. -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
