bcache writeback threads blocked

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm seeing bcache writeback threads sleep uninterruptably for
significant periods on 3.13.6 [1], on a NFS fileserver with 1-2
clients, exporting a 2TB BTRFS filesystem with a write-through bcache
overlaid from a 50GB SSD partition. The workload is low-depth and
light (kernel builds, git activity).

Would any information help, or is this a known issue?

Many thanks; bcache is indeed a superb mechanism.
