Here is the results for generic tests. http://minggr.net/pub/bcachefs/xfstests.log One thing is fallocate not supported yet. Is it known? root@bee:~# mount |grep bcache /dev/sda on /mnt/test type bcache (rw,relatime) root@bee:~# fallocate -l 4096 /mnt/test/hello.c fallocate: /mnt/test/hello.c: fallocate failed: Operation not supported -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-bcache" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
