Sorry for the delay I was away over the weekend, my changes (minimal as they
are) are on github

https://github.com/GregBowyer/linux-bcache

I didn't spend much time working out compile errors if I put on debugging,
they should be pretty easy to fix, I just wanted to play
I also didn't realize that I needed to format the backing device separate to
the cache device, I have not had a chance to fully test everything, I will
try it out over the next few days.

Do you want me to give this a more serious look over ?
Nah, don't worry about spending any extra time on it. I've got a bunch
of minor stuff to fix and fixes to merge in right now, hopefully
should have some of that done tonight.

Nice. If you want to push/email your changes I'll merge them into the
bcache-3.1 branch.

Now if only I had some up to date documentation... :)

Sorry if this is a dumb question, is bcache-3.1 an update to bcache for
kernels 3.1+
It's the current bcache code rebased onto 3.1, yeah.

I ask because I dumbly merged bcache onto the v3.0 tag today since I
want
to
have a play with bcache
Heh. Did you get it to compile/boot? the bcache-3.1 branch isn't
_quite_ that far.
I did get to compile and boot, although I took the bcache branch and not
bcache-3.1 (when I say compile it wont compile if I have debugging turned
on, but I am ignoring that :S)

I just finished updating both the bcache (off 2.6.34) and the
bcache-3.1 branches with the latest stable code.

Also got cgit set up and working, finally. Need to stick a link in the
wiki to it..

I still haven't figured out how to pack a git repository so cloning it
doesn't take>      80% of my linode's ram, but cloning works for me so
I'm
done screwing with it for now.

The bcache branch compiles but hasn't been tested. I don't expect any
issues though, it's pretty close to what I normally develop/test on.

The bcache-3.1 branch still doesn't quite compile, but it's pretty
close - I'm try and get a working version pushed tomorrow, I did boot
a linux 3.1 + bcache kernel at one point...
