[$] Merging the multi-generational LRU
Thursday May 12, 2022. 05:42 PM , from LWN.net
Many types of kernel changes can be hammered into shape on the mailing
lists. There are certain types of patches, however, that have a hard time getting to the finish line that way; they are sufficiently large and invasive that they need an actual gathering of the developers involved. The multi-generational LRU work (MGLRU) falls into this category, which is why it was the subject of a full-hour session at the 2022 Linux Storage, Filesystem, Memory-management and BPF Summit (LSFMM). The discussion held there may well have opened the doors for this code to be merged in the near future.
