HI, all
I saw that bcache will be merged into kernel upstream soon, so i
want to know if btrfs hot relocation support is still meanful, if no,
i will not continue to work on it. can anyone let me know this?
thanks.
Which one is better?
Please do some measurements. Select typical file system use cases, and
publish and compare the measurement results of the two approaches.

The patchset as RFC is sent out mainly to see if it goes in the
correct development direction.
The patchset is trying to introduce hot relocation support
for BTRFS. In hybrid storage environment, when the data in
HDD disk get hot, it can be relocated to SSD disk by BTRFS
hot relocation support automatically; also, if SSD disk ratio
exceed its upper threshold, the data which get cold can be
looked up and relocated to HDD disk to make more space in SSD
disk at first, and then the data which get hot will be relocated
to SSD disk automatically.
BTRFS hot relocation mainly reserve block space from SSD disk
at first, load the hot data to page cache from HDD, allocate
block space from SSD disk, and finally write the data to SSD disk.
If you'd like to play with it, pls pull the patchset from
my git on github:
https://github.com/wuzhy/kernel.git hot_reloc
For how to use, please refer too the example below:
root@debian-i386:~# echo 0 > /sys/block/vdc/queue/rotational
^^^ Above command will hack /dev/vdc to be one SSD disk
root@debian-i386:~# echo 999999 > /proc/sys/fs/hot-age-interval
root@debian-i386:~# echo 10 > /proc/sys/fs/hot-update-interval
root@debian-i386:~# echo 10 > /proc/sys/fs/hot-reloc-interval
root@debian-i386:~# mkfs.btrfs -d single -m single -h /dev/vdb /dev/vdc -f
