Linux Kernel Configuration
└─>File systems

└─>Filesystem caching on files
In linux kernel since version 2.6.30 (release Date: 2009-06-09)  
This permits use of a mounted filesystem as a cache for other
filesystems - primarily networking filesystems - thus allowing fast
local disk to enhance the speed of slower devices.

See Documentation/filesystems/caching/cachefiles.rst for more
information.
