I think you want this branch: https://evilpiepirate.org/git/linux-bcache.git/log/?h=bcache-dev It looks like Kent's tree is up to date (4.5.0) so you could use it directly. I wouldn't copy directory trees around to a different kernel unless you are ready for some backporting work. Perhaps bcachefs can be backported to earlier stable kernels when Kent is ready to call it stable. He was working on endianness compatability last I heard. It would be neat to hear some feedback on its status, maybe benchmarks against btrfs/zfs, too. -Eric > > Thank you for any answer, > Marcin > -- > 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 >
