[dm-devel] [PATCH 1/2] dm-ioband: I/O bandwidth controller v1.10.0: Source code and patch

[Alasdair G Kergon]

OK, an easy thing first.

Please review all the debugging messages and decide whether they will really
still be necessary in an upstream kernel.

Then convert them to DM_DEBUG or DM_DEBUG_LIMIT as appropriate and remove
the 'debug' option.

If you genuinely believe you need to be able to enable some of these at runtime
on a live machine - and so far no other part of dm has found that necessary -
then you should offer some justification and extend the DM_DEBUG* macros (in a
separate patch) to support that.

If however this is more about statistics/verbosity - i.e. information the
user might want to see about how the target is behaving, then consider
alternative ways of making that information available to userspace.
