When there are multiple bcache devices, after a reboot the name of bcache devices may change (e.g. current /dev/bcache1 was /dev/bcache0 before reboot). Therefore we need the backing device UUID (sb.uuid) to identify each bcache device. Backing device uuid can be found by program bcache-super-show, but directly exporting backing_dev_uuid by sysfs file /sys/block/bcache<?>/bcache/backing_dev_uuid is a much simpler method. With backing_dev_uuid, and partition uuids from /dev/disk/by-partuuid/, now we can identify each bcache device and its partitions conveniently.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
