This could be dumb, but... I'm not seeing a dm_cache_update() in
libdiskmgt?
dm_cache_update() is sort of in libdiskmgt right now. Currently, it's
in $SRC/lib/libdiskmgt/common/cache.c as cache_update() but in the
mapfile-vers file, it's not explicitly set as global. CR 7025431 was
filed by the iSCSI initiator team to get libdiskmgt to listen to
sysevents for refreshing the cache. The problem here is that cache
refresh timer was lowered from 60 seconds (!) to 5 seconds but there is
nothing in the new code which I can poll() for completion of the cache
update. Since we have nothing to poll(), I asked the RE to include
cache_update in the mapfile-vers file so ctypes can use it. He agreed
and, to try to stay consistent with the existing naming scheme, he
renamed it to dm_cache_update(). Calling it from our code lets us block
for exactly as long as we need while we wait for the cache to update.
