From: Joe Thornber Date: Thu, 19 Nov 2015 13:50:32 +0000 (+0000) Subject: dm block manager: make block locking optional X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2e8ed71102ff8fe3919dd3a2d73ac4da72686efc;p=linux-beck.git dm block manager: make block locking optional The block manager's locking is useful for catching cycles that may result from certain btree metadata corruption. But in general it serves as a developer tool to catch bugs in code. Unless you're finding that DM thin provisioning is hanging due to infinite loops within the block manager's access to btree nodes you can safely disable this feature.
