Release engineering: All packages should operate in close harmony te make this work. Only a rebuild of the relevant packages is required.
This doesn't make sense. We're doing a mass rebuild, so all packages are getting rebuild anyway.
I'm confused what this Change is actually for. It doesn't sound like an actual planned and targeted set of changes. It seems more of a nebulous "we should get people to do this" proposal.
Yes, I would *guess* it involves: - modifing anaconda to allow cache device designation during installation (this is more important with bcache, as it needs special formatting; dm-cache can be disabled/enabled on the fly) - modify dracut to properly attach bcache in initramfs - integrate dm-cache handling with local-fs.target - finishing SSD caching layer for btrfs - (...) ?
