Can you see the issue with v4.1? You mentioned there are three reports: > [2014-02-04] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1061339 > [2016-01-13] http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-bcache/msg03335.html https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=110771 > [2016-03-25] http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.bcache.devel/3607 [this thread] https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=114871 The first one has been fixed by '8423ae3 block: Fix cloning of discard/write same bios', as mentioned in bugzilla. The other two are reported on v4.4 and v4.5. If you look at the patch description, it is just needed for 4.3+. Or I am wrong?
