I can't reproduce this on vivid w.r.t the hang. For the release all the devs used in bcache setup; it's certainly awkward. Fundamentally, there's no path in sysfs that contains both the cache devs and the backing devs. And AFAIK, there is no way to know that the bcacheX devices is being cached

I could not easily reproduce this with a VM according to your instructions. Are there other factors that are necessary to hit this issue? When the machine hangs do you have any message printed to the console showing the backtrace? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member
