@lkundrak tbh I moved a ton of code around so this was sort of inevitable but I have to take my joy where I can, being British there isn't much

@vbabka @pony @ljs bcachefs is a mature, stable fs that has been battle tested and proven itself.
Now, what do people say about mm?

@vbabka @pony @ljs That explains it! If mm is a filesystem, I have always used it totally wrong! 🙈

@vbabka @pony @ljs Yes, I can see my mistake now. But before I was enlightened, I had tried to use it for things like DMA buffers. That was like using a bronze vase to hammer nails.

@ptesarik @vbabka @pony basically we were shown the way with bcachefs and chose to ignore it, and basically we have several variants of fat16 :(

Our Fish who art in Skull,
Hallowed be Thy name,
Thy kingdom come.
Thy Folly be done.
In Kernel as it is in Pond Water.
Give us this day our daily Shit Posts,
And forgive us our brains,
As we forgive those who use their brains against us,
And lead us not into discussion,
But deliver us from @vbabka.
For there is no God but FISH, and @ljs is His Prophet
Forever and ever.

@ljs @pony @lkundrak @vbabka I'm saving the ZONE_MDMA idea for a 2025-04-01 patch.

@ptesarik @pony @lkundrak @vbabka so is your hack week literally 'delete all zones'?

I actually love big bold ideas and you are completely insane which suits this one.

Though tbf your LPC talk did make me think that the existing situation with the DMA zones is even more insane than you are

@ljs @pony @lkundrak @vbabka Unfortunately, nobody at thought it was a good idea to delete ZONE_MOVEABLE. So, this is now material.
