[PATCH 4.14 077/126] dm cache: only allow a single io_mode cache feature to be requested

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Sep 17 2018 - 19:03:52 EST


4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: John Pittman <jpittman@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit af9313c32c0fa2a0ac3b113669273833d60cc9de ]

More than one io_mode feature can be requested when creating a dm cache
device (as is: last one wins). The io_mode selections are incompatible
with one another, we should force them to be selected exclusively. Add
a counter to check for more than one io_mode selection.

Fixes: 629d0a8a1a10 ("dm cache metadata: add "metadata2" feature")
