    [$] A new swap abstraction layer for the kernel

    Date:
    Thu, 23 May 2024 19:27:21 +0000

    Description:
    Swapping may be a memory-management technique at its core, but its implementation also involves the kernel's filesystem and storage layers.
    So it is not surprising that a session on the kernel's swap abstraction
    layer, led by Chris Li at the 2024 Linux Storage,
    Filesystem, Memory-Management and BPF Summit , was held jointly by all
    three of those tracks. Li has some ambitious ideas for an improved
    subsystem, but getting to a workable implementation may not be easy.
