[PATCH] dm-writecache: fix allocation of devices on writecache tests

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Here I'm sending a patch for device mapper tests suite. With this patch, 
the cache is allocated on the fast device. It performs slightly better 
than dm-cache on the git-checkout benchmark:

Writecache tests used the slow device for both data and cache device -
this resulted in horrible performance.

This patch fixes it, so that the fast device is used for the cache.
