    dm thin: switch to read-only mode if metadata space is exhausted · 4a02b34e
    Mike Snitzer 提交于
    Switch the thin pool to read-only mode in alloc_data_block() if
    dm_pool_alloc_data_block() fails because the pool's metadata space is
    exhausted.
    
    Differentiate between data and metadata space in messages about no
    free space available.
    
    This issue was noticed with the device-mapper-test-suite using:
    dmtest run --suite thin-provisioning -n /exhausting_metadata_space_causes_fail_mode/
    
    The quantity of errors logged in this case must be reduced.
    
    before patch:
    
    device-mapper: thin: 253:4: reached low water mark for metadata device: sending event.
