"libfuse: Add "async_dio" and "writeback_cache" options Asynchronous direct I/O is supported by linux kernels 3.13 and later, writeback caching is supported by 3.14 and later." Here on Ubuntu/precise I have HWE enabled which ships officially Linux-kernel v3.13. According to above log I need at least v3.14 for both features. Not sure if backporting is easy-to-apply for v3.13. IIRC Debian maintains a 3.16 LTS kernel. AFAICS libfuse v2.9.6 which is not available in any Ubuntu release [4] has this change. I can build with the sources from Debian [5]. Hmm, maybe it's time to switch over to Ubuntu/xenial or a modern Debian system. - Sedat - [1] https://github.com/libfuse/libfuse/commit/8bb62a632caa4269bb6436cae67307404882b936 [2] https://github.com/libfuse/libfuse/releases [3] http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/mszeredi/fuse.git/commit/?h=for-next&id=507c552aa58fa48fdea1373948cfc0a1fd0bf61b [4] https://packages.ubuntu.com/libfuse [5] https://packages.debian.org/ibfuse -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
