I setup a block level device-mapper target, and when I am writing to it using the following dd command:

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mapper/mytarget bs=4096 count=5

I have observed that there are a lot of read requests (i.e., bios with read direction). I am unable comprehend what is going on.

As far as I understood, the above dd command should write to my device-mapper target. But why it is reading from it? Is it because I am reading from /dev/zero? But that should not be a part of device-mapper, right? What am I missing here?

For more information, I am using this device-mapper-target. It is a dm target for block-level deduplication. This is the specific source code file.
I inserted some debug messages using DMINFO(). I later used dmesg to see the outputs.

If the count=5 in dd command, there is 1 write request and 5 read requests.

output from dmesg command:

how do you observe this? relevant commands and output? (one example for unexpected read requests is background scanning for UUIDs)

I used dmesg (I have cleared it before setting up the target). After the above dd command, I can see that there is 1 bio with write direction, and 10 with read direction.

I setup a block level device-mapper target, and when I am writing to it using the following dd command:

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mapper/mytarget bs=4096 count=5

I have observed that there are a lot of read requests (i.e., bios with read direction). I am unable comprehend what is going on.

If the count=5 in dd command, there is 1 write request and 5 read requests.

output from dmesg command:

how do you observe this? relevant commands and output? (one example for unexpected read requests is background scanning for UUIDs)

I used dmesg (I have cleared it before setting up the target). After the above dd command, I can see that there is 1 bio with write direction, and 10 with read direction.

I setup a block level device-mapper target, and when I am writing to it using the following dd command:

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mapper/mytarget bs=4096 count=5

I have observed that there are a lot of read requests (i.e., bios with read direction). I am unable comprehend what is going on.

If the count=5 in dd command, there is 1 write request and 5 read requests.

output from dmesg command:

I setup a block level device-mapper target, and when I am writing to it using the following dd command:

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mapper/mytarget bs=4096 count=5

I have observed that there are a lot of read requests (i.e., bios with read direction). I am unable comprehend what is going on.

If the count=5 in dd command, there is 1 write request and 5 read requests.

output from dmesg command:

how do you observe this? relevant commands and output? (one example for unexpected read requests is background scanning for UUIDs)

I used dmesg (I have cleared it before setting up the target). After the above dd command, I can see that there is 1 bio with write direction, and 10 with read direction.
