CVSROOT:	/cvs/lvm2
Module name:	LVM2
Changes by:	mornfall at sourceware.org	2011-10-19 08:46:27

Modified files:
	daemons/dmeventd/plugins/lvm2: dmeventd_lvm.c 
	tools          : lvm2cmd.h lvmcmdlib.c 

Log message:
	Keep the LVM-based dmeventd plugins from trying to manipulate the dmeventd
	monitoring state of the logical volumes they are currently acting on.
	
	Until now, every time a logical volume has been changed by a dmeventd plugin,
	this plugin would have called back to dmeventd through the external FIFO
	mechanism. I am fairly sure this was superfluous, inefficient and possibly even
	dangerous.
