LPC Microconference Proposals

Description

CFP closes on July 5th.
Memory management has become exciting again. Some controversial subjects which might merit discussion:

  • Should we add memory policy zones?
  • How far should we go to support CXL?
  • How do we handle page allocation in a memdesc world?
  • Should we switch the slab allocator from partial slabs to sheaves?
  • Can we get rid of non-compound multi-page allocations?
  • What other improvements might we see from mTHP?
  • How might we make allocations guaranteed to not fail?
  • Can we share the pagecache between reflinked files?
  • Is there a better way to share page tables between processes than hugetlb?
