The correct thing to do (as pointed out by Andrea Arc.) is to hook b_end_io such that we can keep track of all 'in flight' io's, and only start moving once these have completed. This is implemented in the new device-mapper driver that we are switching to shortly. I consider 'live' pvmove broken in the current LVM. - Joe
