    dm: add switch target · 9d0eb0ab
    Jim Ramsay authored
    dm-switch is a new target that maps IO to underlying block devices
    efficiently when there is a large number of fixed-sized address regions
    but there is no simple pattern to allow for a compact mapping
    representation such as dm-stripe.
    
    Though we have developed this target for a specific storage device, Dell
    EqualLogic, we have made an effort to keep it as general purpose as
    possible in the hope that others may benefit.
    
    Originally developed by Jim Ramsay. Simplified by Mikulas Patocka.
