A new ndctl release is available[1]. Highlights include support for the new device-dax subdivision functionality added in Linux in v5.10, including ways to create smaller devdax devices using daxctl/libdaxctl, as well as creating, listing, and restoring from a config dump, 'mappings' on these devices. Other updates include several static analysis fixups, reworking the license identification scheme for different sub-components, and a fix for the reconfigure-in-place workflow which tries to retain device names.
A shortlog is appended below.
