Subject[PATCH v4 12/13] dm snapshot: redirect accesses to origin if merging snap invalidated
DateFri, 20 Nov 2009 15:27:52 -0500
From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com>

If we are merging an invalidated snapshot, redirect all accesses to the
origin device. This is safe because snapshot_merge_process() will
stop_merge() if the merging snapshot becomes invalid.

Allowing the origin device to remain functional is important because it
may contain the root filesystem.
