I took some time to try out bcache, on an x86 Dell PC with OCZ Agility 3 SSD.
The good news is that once I had applied various workarounds, thing seems to work as expected, both with 2.6.34 and with an updated 3.1 branch. I had to make a few modifications to get going, and then more to enable the various debug options. The most awkward problems seem to be the result of 32-bit architecture, and I think are highlighted by building as a module. I'll follow-up this email with the patches (based on bcache-3.1 branch), though I don't consider them to be long-term solutions; they show the changes I made. I some cases I've proposed a better solution, but thought I'd raise them here for discussion first. -- Mark -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-bcache" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
