[PATCH] dm: v4 ioctl interface
From: Joe Thornber <thornber@sistina.com> v4 of the ioctl interface. Note there never was a v2 or a v3 except in an unofficial EVMS way. This works correctly with the 64-bit dev_t patches in -mm kernels. There is now a config option to allow the user to select v1 or v4, it defaults to v1. dm-ioctl.[hc] just #includes dm-ioctl-v[14].[hc] depending on the config option. If you want to use v4 you will have to update your tools (libdevmapper/lvm). The latest tools at the time of writing are: dmsetup + libdevmapper + replacement kernel patches for 2.4.20 & 2.4.21: ftp://ftp.sistina.com/pub/LVM2/device-mapper/device-mapper-testing-new-version4-interface.tgz Updated LVM2 tools to work with the above: ftp://ftp.sistina.com/pub/LVM2/tools/LVM2.0-testing.tgz
