At the same time, the implementation of the negative branch of the

ion. It will not allow to work with the bios`s
data.
blk_interposer allows to get full access to bio.
For use in the DM, we must also be able to add new bio's.
Summary:
For device-mapper purposes, bpf_io_filter is not suitable.
bpf_io_filter in this form is probably convenient to use for monitoring and
studying the block layer.
For the security task, I would suggest making a separate module and using
blk_interposer to intercept bio requests. This will give more flexible
functionality and better performance.
