Yeah. Please hote the RFC. I was really hoping for some broader feedback about whether this is a better approach than the more specialized ext4 extent cache. If I can get an ack on the approach, I think a minimal block device cache would support at least 2 or 4 entries, and I'd need to be able to answer the questions from your other response: > Do you have any stats on how many operations this saves for typical FS > operations such as: > > - Partition table type identification (with various types such as MBR/DOS, > GPT, ...) > - Partition enumeration > - Filesystem identification (with various filesystems such as FAT, ext, ...) > - File reads Should I interpret this as support of a small(ish) block device cache?
