Subject: what happened to the nifty ioprio cache hinting stuff?
Date: Tue, 02 May 2017 11:54:38 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <877f1zil5d.fsf@esperi.org.uk> (raw)
I found the ioprio cache hinting quite exciting (I know, I'm weird):
it won't help with writeback or e.g. NFS, but it will certainly let me
do things like run backups without wearing my SSD out.
This was in ewheeler's for-4.10-block-bcache-updates branch, but it
didn't get into 4.10 or 4.11, even while other commits on the same
branch did :( is it dead? (I mean, it still seems to *apply* to 4.11...)
