From 69bef7931e8880c709556f8444938d8bb9a16118 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Amit Shah Date: Wed, 26 Feb 2014 15:12:37 +0530 Subject: block: use /var/tmp instead of /tmp for -snapshot If TMPDIR is not specified, the default was to use /tmp for the working copy of the block devices. Update this to /var/tmp instead, so systems using tmp-on-tmpfs don't end up inadvertently using RAM for the block device.
