Subject: [PATCH] multipath: delegate flushing maps to multipathd
|
||
|
|
||
|
Since there can be problems with removing maps outside of multipathd,
|
||
|
multipath should attempt to delegate this command to multipathd.
|
||
|
However, multipathd doesn't attempt to suspend the device, in order
|
||
|
to avoid potential hangs. If delegating to multipathd fails, multipath
|
||
|
should try the remove itself.
