From: Martin Wilck <mwilck@xxxxxxxx> The purpose of dm_lib_release() is to release stacked device node operations in libdevmapper. This is functionality we don't need and use any more, as we rely on udev to set up device nodes and symlinks. We always set DM_UDEV_DISABLE_LIBRARY_FALLBACK when we run dm tasks. In the standard CREATE and REMOVE cases, libdevmapper doesn't stack any operations if this flag is set. The only exceptions are a) RESUME operations with DM_ADD_NODE_ON_RESUME set. This happens implicity when we create new maps b) RENAME operations In both cases, we call dm_udev_wait() after the libdm operation, which calls update_devs() and thus has the same effect as dm_lib_release(), cleaning out stacked operations. OTOH, dm_lib_releases() accesses static variables in libdevmapper, so calling it might be racy. Drop the calls to dm_lib_release().
