Hi Rajat,<br>
<br>
Thanks for bringing this up.<br>
<br>
I would like to request a FFE for the LVM+nvmet patches.<br>
<br>
They had a small bug that was detected by the WIP tempest CI job which<br>
got fixed a while back, but I've been fighting the normal CI job with<br>
spurious errors since then.<br>
<br>
Now they all have +1 from CI and are ready to merge.<br>
<br>
These patches add new features to the LVM driver over NVMe-oF, like<br>
native multipathing and sharing targets. Thanks to those any developer<br>
will be able to work on the NVMe-oF os-brick code without needing a high<br>
end storage array, and we'll be able to have CI jobs that can exercise<br>
those code paths as well.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Gorka.<br>
