I looked through the code and thought this was a good tool that does something that LVM currently doesn't support very well.
Well now I'm totally confused. The feedback I received when I initially posted this led me to believe that there was zero (or less) interest in a non-LVM interface to dm-cache. That was the reason that I initially pulled the repo, since I didn't want someone to stumble upon it and unknowingly trust their data to something that is essentially an unsupported dead end. (It's back up by the way, with warnings that I hope are sufficiently strong -- https://github.com/ipilcher/zodcache.) So I'm back to the question that I asked in my original note ... Is this approach (i.e. not LVM cache but more "bcache-like" for lack of a better term) something that is worth pursuing? If so, I'm happy to fix/enhance/maintain this code going forward, and I hope that this community will be willing to provide suggestions, answer the odd question, etc. -- ======================================================================== Ian Pilcher arequipeno@xxxxxxxxx -------- "I grew up before Mark Zuckerberg invented friendship" -------- ======================================================================== -- dm-devel mailing list dm-devel@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/dm-devel
