Did you contact the upstream author? As far as I'm informed he was planning to add reload LUN reload support to the upcoming 0.5 series but I didn't hear since. Anyway, thanks for your patch which looks quite good at a first glance. I'll review and test later so that it will end in Wheezy before the freeze. -- with kind regards, Arno Töll IRC: daemonkeeper on Freenode/OFTC GnuPG Key-ID: 0x9D80F36D
