[dm-devel] DM-Cache Writeback & Direct IO?

Hi,

Can the dm-cache writeback cache buffer direct IO or goes direct IO 
always immediately to the origin device?

I am currently performing tests and see that random direct write IO 
never hits the cache, even after overwriting the same region over and over.


Kind Regards
