Message-ID: <cover.1336619038.git.koverstreet@google.com> Date: Wed, 9 May 2012 23:07:29 -0400 From: Kent Overstreet <koverstreet@...gle.com> To: linux-bcache@...r.kernel.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, dm-devel@...hat.com Cc: tejun@...gle.com, agk@...hat.com Subject: [Bcache v13 00/16] bcache: a cache for arbitrary block devices using an SSD. Short overview: Bcache does both writethrough and writeback caching. It presents itself as a new block device, a bit like say md. You can cache an arbitrary number of block devices with a single cache device, and attach and detach things at runtime - it's quite flexible. It's very fast. It uses a b+ tree for the index, along with a journal to coalesce index updates, and a bunch of other cool tricks like auxiliary binary search trees with software floating point keys for searching within btree nodes. Bcache is solid, production ready code. There are still bugs being found that affect specific configurations, but there haven't been any major issues found in awhile - it's well past time I started working on getting it into mainline. It's a lot of code - I tried to split it out so that it'd make some sort of sense for reviewing. Let me know if there's anything else I can do to make review easier. TODO/known issues: __up_write() needs to be exported for bcache to compile as a module - it's used for bypassing lockdep when traversing the btree during garbage collection. If someone else knows a better solution, please let me know. The userspace interface is going to change before it goes in. The general consensus at LSF was that we don't want yet another interface for probing/managing block devices, and dm exists so we may as well use that. I don't think anyone's started on that yet, though. Documentation needs to be updated. That's being actively worked on, though.
