> Has anybody ever tested bcache against power loss?
We have had to hard reset our machine many times during the process of
troubleshooting various lockups that have been since resolved by some of
the patches posted to this list (attached).
I did notice in the logs that it said something about replaying
transactions when it came up after a hard reset, so that is promising.
Still, we reformatted all of our bcache volumes after the lockups were
resolved just to make sure that there were no unexpected side effects and
have not had any issues since.
