[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 11/12] rbd: hook up cache options

[Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>]

From: Josh Durgin <josh.durgin@inktank.com>

Writeback caching was added in Ceph 0.46, and writethrough will be in
0.47. These are controlled by general config options, so there's no
need to check for librbd version.
