Package: bcache-tools
Version: 1.0.8-2+b1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

1. configure a single bcache caching device:

   make-bcache -C /dev/vdc

2. configure two backing devices on the same cache: 

   make-bcache -B /dev/vdb1
   make-bcache -B /dev/vdb2

3. Add labels:

   echo "this-was-bcache0-vdb1" | sudo tee /sys/class/block/bcache0/bcache/label
   echo "this-was-bcache16-vdb2" | sudo tee 
/sys/class/block/bcache16/bcache/label

4. Examine /dev/bcache/{by-uuid,by-label} and confirm they point to
   bcache0 and bcache16 as expected (labels).

5. reboot

6. check /dev/bcache*


The outcome after reboot is that the /dev/bcache* directory is not
present and therefor no /dev/bcache/{by-uuid,by-label}.

However, one can check the labels via sysfs.


The expectation is that the /deb/bcache directory is populated with
stable symlinks as the bcache minor number (0, 16, etc) may change
depending on when the backing device is bound to a bcache minor number.
