Thanks for providing that patch, sadly it doesn't seem to be enough.
`cat /proc/partitions` is empty and I'm stuck in busybox/initramfs
during boot:
(initramfs) dmesg | grep megaraid
[2.735633] megaraid_sas :08:00.0: Waiting for FW to come to ready state
(initramfs) modinfo megaraid_sas | grep -i 001c

Bug#900442: linux-image-4.16.0-2-amd64: LVM2 COW snapshots fail as of 4.16
Package: src:linux Version: 4.16.12-1 Severity: normal [Copying Debian LVM team, but tentatively assigning this bug to the kernel.] I've found that as of Linux 4.16, making traditional COW LVM2 snapshots fails. (AFAICT, I can't substitute thin snapshots because my origin volumes aren't thin and need to remain mounted read-write.) I've worked around this problem for now by sticking with 4.15, but that's obviously not a good long-term solution. Specifically, the relevant "lvm create" command initially fails with errors of the form Using default stripesize 64.00 KiB. device-mapper: reload ioctl on (253:N+1) failed: Input/output error Failed to lock logical volume MyGroup/MyVolume. Aborting. Manual intervention required. with the kernel meanwhile logging messages of the form generic_make_request: Trying to write to read-only block-device dm-N (partno 0) device-mapper: persistent snapshot: write_header failed device-mapper: table: 253:N+1: snapshot: Failed to read snapshot metadata device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table Subsequent attempts fail with errors of the form Using default stripesize 64.00 KiB. Setting chunksize to 4.00 KiB. Archiving volume group "MyGroup" metadata (seqno 9540). Creating logical volume MyVolume.snap Creating volume group backup "/etc/lvm/backup/MyGroup" (seqno 9541). activation/volume_list configuration setting not defined: Checking only host tags for MyGroup/MyVolume.snap.
