Well I've tried creating some lv's from the command line under linux 3.9.7 (lvm 2.02.98 built with 3.8.1 headers), and the results are consistent with the test suite, i.e. I can create plain vanilla lv's, but not with --type=raid/snapshot/mirror, which all give kernel target not found errors. I can also create a plain lv on a vg consisting of 3 loopback volumes, and format, mount, copy files. Ah, just checked /usr/lib/modules/3.9.7/modules.alias - it's grown considerably since 3.8.1, and has a whole lot of aliases such as: alias dm-snapshot-merge dm_snapshot alias dm-snapshot-origin dm_snapshot alias dm-raid6 dm_raid alias dm-raid5 dm_raid and so on. Wonder if this has something to do with it? lvm2 seems to think that the kernel target is missing, perhaps it has just changed name, and lvm2 isn't checking the alias file.
