If a backing device had dirty data in the cache, + writeback mode is automatically disabled and all dirty data is + flushed before the device is unregistered. Caches unregister + all associated backing devices before unregistering themselves. + +What: /sys/block//bcache/clear_stats +Date: November 2010 +Contact: Kent Overstreet +Description: + Writing to this file resets all the statistics for the device. + +What: /sys/block//bcache/cache +Date: November 2010 +Contact: Kent Overstreet +Description: + For a backing device that has cache, a symlink to + the bcache/ dir of that cache. + +What: /sys/block//bcache/cache_hits +Date: November 2010 +Contact: Kent Overstreet +Description: + For backing devices: integer number of full cache hits, + counted per bio.

Expressed as bytes in human + readable units. + +What: /sys/block//bcache/writeback +Date: November 2010 +Contact: Kent Overstreet +Description: + For backing devices: When on, writeback caching is enabled and + writes will be buffered in the cache. When off, caching is in + writethrough mode; reads and writes will be added to the + cache but no write buffering will take place. + +What: /sys/block//bcache/writeback_running +Date: November 2010 +Contact: Kent Overstreet +Description: + For backing devices: when off, dirty data will not be written + from the cache to the backing device. The cache will still be + used to buffer writes until it is mostly full, at which point + writes transparently revert to writethrough mode. Intended only + for benchmarking/testing. + +What: /sys/block//bcache/writeback_delay +Date: November 2010 +Contact: Kent Overstreet +Description: + For backing devices: In writeback mode, when dirty data is + written to the cache and the cache held no dirty data for that + backing device, writeback from cache to backing device starts + after this delay, expressed as an integer number of seconds. + +What: /sys/block//bcache/writeback_percent +Date: November 2010 +Contact: Kent Overstreet +Description: + For backing devices: If nonzero, writeback from cache to + backing device only takes place when more than this percentage + of the cache is used, allowing more write coalescing to take + place and reducing total number of writes sent to the backing + device. Integer between 0 and 40. + +What: /sys/block//bcache/synchronous +Date: November 2010 +Contact: Kent Overstreet +Description: + For a cache, a boolean that allows synchronous mode to be + switched on and off. In synchronous mode all writes are ordered + such that the cache can reliably recover from unclean shutdown; + if disabled bcache will not generally wait for writes to + complete but if the cache is not shut down cleanly all data + will be discarded from the cache. Should not be turned off with + writeback caching enabled. + +What: /sys/block//bcache/discard +Date: November 2010 +Contact: Kent Overstreet +Description: + For a cache, a boolean allowing discard/TRIM to be turned off + or back on if the device supports it. + +What: /sys/block//bcache/bucket_size +Date: November 2010 +Contact: Kent Overstreet +Description: + For a cache, bucket size in human readable units, as set at + cache creation time; should match the erase block size of the + SSD for optimal performance. + +What: /sys/block//bcache/nbuckets +Date: November 2010 +Contact: Kent Overstreet +Description: + For a cache, the number of usable buckets. + +What: /sys/block//bcache/tree_depth +Date: November 2010 +Contact: Kent Overstreet +Description: + For a cache, height of the btree excluding leaf nodes (i.e. a + one node tree will have a depth of 0). + +What: /sys/block//bcache/btree_cache_size +Date: November 2010 +Contact: Kent Overstreet +Description: + Number of btree buckets/nodes that are currently cached in + memory; cache dynamically grows and shrinks in response to + memory pressure from the rest of the system. + +What: /sys/block//bcache/written +Date: November 2010 +Contact: Kent Overstreet +Description: + For a cache, total amount of data in human readable units + written to the cache, excluding all metadata. + +What: /sys/block//bcache/btree_written +Date: November 2010 +Contact: Kent Overstreet +Description: + For a cache, sum of all btree writes in human readable units. -- cgit v1.2.3
