        I see that in 
            libdevmapper.c following line is defined
         
        struct
            dm_task *dmt;
         
        I
              cannot seem to find out where is dm_task and associated
              functions are actually defined? I do not see them in the
              libdevmapper library headers and .c files. Thank you for
              all the guidance.
         
      
    Hi
    

    This structure is private to libdevmapper only usage.  Access to 
      struct members is provided only via  public functions.
    You  can always look at source files  -
      libdm/ioctl/libdm-targets.h  -  but as mentioned earlier - forget
      about using a copy of this struct in your tools - there is only
      public access - as the structure content may freely change between
      release of libdevmapper - which would have made you binary
      incompatible.
    

    Regards
