[PATCH] device-mapper: dm-raid1: Limit bios to size of mirror region

From: Alasdair G Kergon
Date: Thu Jun 30 2005 - 13:22:09 EST


Set the target's split_io field when building a dm-mirror device so
incoming bios won't span the mirror's internal regions. Without
this, regions can be accessed while not holding correct locks and data
corruption is possible.
