[dm-devel] Thread-safety of libdevmapper

[Demi M. Obenour]

>From discussions with the Stratis developers, it appears that libdevmapper
is not thread-safe.  This is very annoying, since it means that every other
library that uses it needs to coordinate synchronization.

Is there some fundamental reason that libdevmapper is not thread-safe, such as
the use of thread-unsafe kernel interfaces?

Sincerely,
