hi guys, i was thinking about cache insues
since md = multiple devices
could we implement a new device used for caches? (port bcache to md,
or flashcache (facebook))
something like:
mdadm --create /dev/md1 --level=cache --cache-device=/dev/XXX
--data-device=/dev/ZZZZ

Wny would you want to port when it works fine across different types of
block devices already, including md? At least bcache is supposed to -
and I think flashcache too.

i don´t know the real history of md, but dm-cache is something similar
to flashcache and bcache, i don´t know if they stoped in time, or just
md takes the place of dm
