Cover letter [PATCH RFC 0/2] dm-mp netlink events
This patch series creates a dm-mp hardware handler that sends netlink messages when a hardware handlers error function is called. The skb mempool in this patch is derived / copied from drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.c.
Currently I have created this support in a hardware handler to reduce the impact on other code, but this code could easily be moved to dm-mpath.c::do_end_io or higher if desired. The events will also contain better information once the scsi error mapping patches are done.
This patch series contains:
1 A hardware handler that sends events over netlink (dm-evt) 2 A sample user space program to receive / display events.
