Subject: evms: Snapshots in kernel 2.6.19

Date: Wed, 11 Apr 2007 00:11:57 +0200

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Package: evms
Version: 2.5.5-20
Severity: normal
Tags: patch,upstream

Hi there,

starting somewhere between 2.6.18 and 2.6.19 making snapshots stopped
working.

The device mapper complains like this:

device-mapper: table: 254:52: snapshot: requires exactly 4 arguments

EVMS passes one argument more than expected.  Apparently the evms patch
that actually supported the argument never made it into device mapper.

Before 2.6.19 it was ignored, so I assume it's save to just drop it.
Attached a patch does that.

Juergen


PS: also posted upstream (evms-devel@lists.sourceforge.net, but awaiting
    moderator approval).
