Re: vm/fs meetup in september?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



A few things I'd like to talk about are:

- the address space operations APIs, and their page based nature. I think
  it would be nice to generally move toward offset,length based ones as
  much as possible because it should give more efficiency and flexibility
  in the filesystem.

- write_begin API if it is still an issue by that date. Hope not :)

- truncate races

- fsblock if it hasn't been shot down by then

- how to make complex API changes without having to fix most things
  yourself.

I'd like to add:

-revamping filemap_xip.c

-memory mappable swap file (I'm not sure if this one is appropriate
for the proposed meeting)
