Yes, that seems like a fine RFE. Or a bug, if there's a policy saying that this must work. A quick search didn't turn up any documentation. I think this would be implemented in zvol_open(). (Though it's unfortunate that every device must implement this on its own; it would be better if the infrastructure took care of it.) --matt _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
