I remember there was some kind of discussion, but this looks pretty ugly. Also no need for the bad_pmem variable: if (is_bad_pmem(&pmem->bb, PFN_PHYS(pgoff) / 512, PFN_PHYS(nr_pages)) && (!kaddr | !dax_recovery_started(pmem->dax_dev, kaddr))) return -EIO; Also: the !kaddr check could go into dax_recovery_started. That way even if we stick with the overloading kaddr could also be used just for the flag if needed. -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
