(from oldest to newest). And that's just from 3.16 to 3.17-rc3, going all the way back to 3.10 would be a lot of work. If there's anyone that cares about bcache on stable kernels (and actually use it), now would be a good time to pipe up.Just "piping up" as I care about bcache and actually use it in production on 3.10! Shame I don't have the knowledge to try and backport these though :-) EddieI'm "piping up" as well, I use bcache on 3.10 in production. -PeterMore "piping up": we currently use bcache on a few nodes in production, on 3.14 and 3.15, and plan to roll it out on a wider scale now. If necessary we'll go with these kernels, but we'd certainly prefer our usual 3.10-based CentOS kernel.
CentOS does not ship bcache at all. In retrospect it's obvious why.
