Summary0000897: [RFE] Enable various newer DM targets - CONFIG_DM_INTEGRITY
DescriptionMainline kernels have had a bunch of new device mapper targets added over time which would be nice to have access to.

I'm primarily interested in CONFIG_DM_INTEGRITY, which the CentOS7 shipping version of cryptsetup does provide some userspace support for.

The rest may be less interesting due to lack of userspace support from mainline CentOS 7 packages. The currently missing DM targets are:

# CONFIG_DM_UNSTRIPED is not set
# CONFIG_DM_WRITECACHE is not set
# CONFIG_DM_FLAKEY is not set
# CONFIG_DM_VERITY_FEC is not set
# CONFIG_DM_LOG_WRITES is not set
# CONFIG_DM_INTEGRITY is not set
# CONFIG_DM_ZONED is not set

Thanks.

Thank you for your request.

I have examined the existing configuration file for kernel-ml and, after cross-referencing it with your list, have queued the following changes for the next build of the kernel-ml package set --

CONFIG_DM_UNSTRIPED=m
CONFIG_DM_WRITECACHE=m
CONFIG_DM_VERITY_FEC=y
CONFIG_DM_INTEGRITY=m
CONFIG_DM_ZONED=m

Thanks. I'll attempt to test as much as I can on the next -ml release.

With the recent release of the kernel-ml-4.20.7-1.el7.elrepo package set [1], the above configuration changes have been incorporated into the kernel.

Now closing as "resolved/fixed".
