Let's bump thread again - has anyone tried dm-cache on openvz/centos 6
kernels? looks like some support is included:
root at mu2:~# fgrep CONFIG_DM_CACHE /boot/config-2.6.32-042stab112.15-el6-openvz
CONFIG_DM_CACHE=m
CONFIG_DM_CACHE_MQ=m
CONFIG_DM_CACHE_CLEANER=m


>From userspace utils view, I'm using Debian 8 as host, so should have
some support, but not sure is dm-cache itself considered as somehow
stable at all.
