Subject:  [PATCH] device-mapper for 2.4
Date:  Thu, 27 Jun 2002 17:59:15 +0100

An up-to-date device-mapper patchset against 2.4.19-rc1 has gone up today at: http://people.sistina.com/~thornber/ Please send feedback if you can think of ways to improve it - or even to break it:-) Device-mapper is a light-weight driver designed to support volume managers generically. It lets you define new block devices composed of ranges of sectors of existing devices. There are also patches to support snapshots and mirroring (LVM2 will use this to implement pvmove). ftp://ftp.sistina.com/pub/LVM2/device-mapper/patches/ linux-2.4.19-rc1-mempool.patch linux-2.4.19-rc1-mempool_slab.patch linux-2.4.19-rc1-vcalloc.patch linux-2.4.19-rc1-b_bdev_private.patch linux-2.4.19-rc1-config.patch linux-2.4.19-rc1-devmapper_1_core.patch linux-2.4.19-rc1-devmapper_2_ioctl.patch linux-2.4.19-rc1-devmapper_3_basic_mappings.patch linux-2.4.19-rc1-devmapper_4_snapshots.patch linux-2.4.19-rc1-devmapper_5_mirror.patch Single patch combining the above: combined-linux-2.4.19-rc1-devmapper-ioctl.patch Alasdair -- agk@uk.sistina.com UK Linux Developers' Conference 2002 July 4-7 Bristol www.ukuug.org - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
