For the Quantal 12.10 kernel, it appears that the following are already
enabled:
~/ubuntu-quantal/debian.master/config$ grep -rn "CONFIG_NFS_FSCACHE" *
config.common.ubuntu:3749:CONFIG_NFS_FSCACHE=y
~/ubuntu-quantal/debian.master/config$ grep -rn "CONFIG_CIFS_FSCACHE" *
config.common.ubuntu:871:CONFIG_CIFS_FSCACHE=y
However, CONFIG_AFS_FSCACHE still appears to be disabled at the moment:
~/ubuntu-quantal/debian.master/config$ grep -rn "CONFIG_AFS_FSCACHE" *
config.common.ubuntu:158:# CONFIG_AFS_FSCACHE is not set
Examining CONFIG_AFS_FSCACHE further, it appears it is marked as
EXPERIMENTAL. ie:
~/ubuntu-quantal$ grep -A7 "config AFS_FSCACHE" fs/afs/Kconfig config
AFS_FSCACHE
bool "Provide AFS client caching support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
depends on EXPERIMENTAL
depends on AFS_FS=m && FSCACHE || AFS_FS=y && FSCACHE=y
help
Say Y here if you want AFS data to be cached locally on disk through
the generic filesystem cache manager
Our default configuration policy is to disable EXPERIMENTAL options
until there has been a specific request to enable them and the requested
option would result in minimal risk of regression/negative impact. I've
subsequently applied the attached patch which enables
CONFIG_AFS_FSCACHE=y to the Quantal kernel repo. Thanks.
