[dm-devel] [RFC PATCH 00/16] multipath path classification

[Martin Wilck]

This patch series implements the recommendation in my recent posting
"Multipath path classification revisited". My testing has been surprisingly
successful so far; more testing is of course needed.
Anyway, I think it's in a shape that I can ask for review.

I've seen Ben's detailed reply to my posting, but his comments haven't been
taken into account in this series yet.

Benjamin Marzinski (1):
  libmultipath: trigger change uevent on new device creation

Martin Wilck (15):
  Revert "multipath: ignore -i if find_multipaths is set"
  Revert "multipathd: imply -n if find_multipaths is set"
  libmultipath: add mpvec param to should_multipath()
  libmultipath: should_multipath: keep existing maps
  multipath -u -i: change logic for find_multipaths
  libmultipath: let ignore_wwids be set in config file
  multipathd: replace -n with !ignore_wwids
  multipath.conf.5: document "ignore_wwids"
  multipath.8: adapt documentation of '-i'
  multipathd.8: document that '-n' is now ignored
  multipath: common code path for CMD_VALID_PATH
  multipath -u/-c: change output to environment/key format
  multipath -u/-c: add "$DEV is maybe a valid path"
  multipath.rules: find_multipaths+ignore_wwids logic
  libmultipath: trigger path uevent only when necessary
