From: Kay Sievers Date: Sun, 31 Jul 2011 20:08:04 +0000 (+0200) Subject: loop: add BLK_DEV_LOOP_MIN_COUNT=%i to allow distros 0 pre-allocated loop devices X-Git-Tag: v3.1-rc3~9^2~17 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d134b00b9acca3fb054d7c88a5f5d562ecbb42d1;p=pandora-kernel.git loop: add BLK_DEV_LOOP_MIN_COUNT=%i to allow distros 0 pre-allocated loop devices Instead of unconditionally creating a fixed number of dead loop devices which need to be investigated by storage handling services, even when they are never used, we allow distros start with 0 loop devices and have losetup(8) and similar switch to the dynamic /dev/loop-control interface instead of searching /dev/loop%i for free devices.
