Does the l1 cache content get written to l2 cache on shutdown? Or is it wiped?

So far L1 cache content is discarded on shutdown. But in next version we'll have a better solution and PrimoCache will automatically write hot data in L1 to L2.

First the defer-write data (if any) gets stored (flush to disk).
After that any R/W-cached blocks get wiped, yes.

Would it be possible to write that data to a primary storage in case I don't want to use the L2 cache medium?
