no, cache=writeback is ok, write barriers are working correctly only with cache=unsafe,it doesn't care about write flush. ----- Mail original ----- De: "folkert" <folk...@vanheusden.com> À: kvm@vger.kernel.org Envoyé: Mercredi 12 Juin 2013 10:03:10 Objet: cache write back & barriers Hi, In virt-manager I saw that there's the option for cache writeback for storage devices. I'm wondering: does this also make kvm to ignore write barriers invoked by the virtual machine? regards, Folkert van Heusden -- Always wondered what the latency of your webserver is?
