2021-06-25dm writecache: add optional "metadata_only" parameterMikulas Patocka1-0/+3
Add a "metadata_only" parameter that when present: only metadata is promoted to the cache. This option improves performance for heavier REQ_META workloads (e.g. device-mapper-test-suite's "git clone and checkout" benchmark improves from 341s to 312s).
