Avoiding this > problem is why wipefs *exists*. :) Yes, but something triggered udev when it shouldn't... This ends up in unregistering/stopping the bcache, then wipefs the cdev, then look if udev was triggered and eventually stop it again. I guess everytime I ran "fdisk -l" to double-check the devices, or "lsblk", or "blkid", udev was triggered and re-enabled the bcache. This is a race you cannot win. ;-) -- Regards, Kai Replies to list-only preferred. -- 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
