Hi Mikulas,
Sorry to trouble you.
I recently noticed dm-writecache in the dm dir, and want to have a try.
But I failed to setup a basic writecache dm using dmsetup:
# dmsetup create testwbc --table "0 512000000 writecache s /dev/md1p5 /dev/md1p6 1024"
device-mapper: reload ioctl on testwbc failed: Invalid argument
Command failed
In dmesg, there is:
[ 7863.034468] device-mapper: table: 253:0: writecache: Invalid number of feature args
[ 7863.034476] device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table
I wonder what is the exact args to dmsetup?
Thanks,
shenghui
