I heard SGI has already implemented the DM-API for the XFS being ported to Linux. I'm working with some people who are also thinking about doing the DM-API for Linux. If SGI cannot yet release the source code, could you still talk about the user space<-->kernel space protocol so that we could be compatiable?

I was thinking of turning each function+parameter list into a struct with a function code, and then use ioctl to move the struct back and forth, but if you can discuss a better method I would be happy to hear about it.
