From 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Martin Wilck Date: Mon, 2 Mar 2020 22:43:27 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] multipath: add "-e" option to enable foreign libraries As we have set "enable_foreign" to "NONE" now by default, users may find it useful to be able to switch on foreign multipath display with an extra command line option even if foreign libraries are not enabled in multipath.conf. Currently this makes only sense with "multipath -ll", as the nvme library (and foreign libraries in general) support only the display of status information.
