Could this be a problem when using pmem/nvdimm devices with byte-granularity (no BTT layer)? (hw_sector_size reports 512 in this case while we could expect 1 instead). Or it just doesn't matter because BTT is the only way to use these devices for filesystems like other block devices? thanks Brice -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
