So shouldn't it be possible to not allow a given bio to cross zone boundaries by using dm_accept_partial_bio()? Like you're already doing in dmz_map() actually... so why do you need to account for crossing zone boundaries on read later on in dmz_submit_read_bio()? Is it that these zones aren't easily known up front (in dmz_map)? Mike -- dm-devel mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
