[PATCH v2 00/11] dm-pcache – persistent-memory cache for block devices

[Dongsheng Yang <dongsheng.yang@linux.dev>]

Hi Mikulas,
	This is V2 for dm-pcache, please take a look.

Code:
    https://github.com/DataTravelGuide/linux tags/pcache_v2

Changelogs

V2 from V1:
	- introduce req_alloc() and req_init() in backing_dev.c, then we
	  can do req_alloc() before holding spinlock and do req_init()
	  in subtree_walk().
	- introduce pre_alloc_key and pre_alloc_req in walk_ctx, that
	  means we can pre-allocate cache_key or backing_dev_request
	  before subtree walking.
	- use mempool_alloc() with NOIO for the allocation of cache_key
	  and backing_dev_req.
	- some coding style changes from comments of Jonathan.

V1 from RFC-V2:
	- use crc32c to replace crc32
	- only retry pcache_req when cache full, add pcache_req into defer_list,
	  and wait cache invalidation happen.
	- new format for pcache table, it is more easily extended with
	  new parameters later.
	- remove __packed.
	- use spin_lock_irq in req_complete_fn to replace
	  spin_lock_irqsave.
	- fix bug in backing_dev_bio_end with spin_lock_irqsave.
	- queue_work() inside spinlock.
	- introduce inline_bvecs in backing_dev_req.
	- use kmalloc_array for bvecs allocation.
	- calculate ->off with dm_target_offset() before use it.
