RapidDisk / RapidCache 3.5 now available.
RapidDisk is an advanced Linux RAM Disk which consists of a collection of modules and an administration tool. Features include: Dynamically allocate RAM as block device. Use them as stand alone disk drives or even map them as caching nodes to slower local disk drives.
I pushed it into the mainline last Sunday. Yes, I know, I am a bit late with this announcement.
- Forcing rxdsk driver to do the drive enumeration. Removed functionality from administration utility.
- Appropriately initializing major number variable to 0 before registering block device module.
- Administration utility now checks for sysfs entry of rxdsk and not module name in /proc/modules.
- Converted sector size input in rxdsk module to KB input. Modified administration utility to this.
- Fixed bug in check for total rxdsk devices in module.
You can pull it from the git, yum, ZYpp & apt repos or download it from the SourceForge project page.
To stay updated, you can follow the RapidDisk Google+ page.
