A relatively new professional kernel hacker, born in August 6, 2000, and living in Korea (South!).

- Linux Kernel Developer @ Oracle (Linux Kernel MM) (2025.02 ~ Present)
- Reviewer for the Linux Slab subsystem
- Former Intern @ NVIDIA, SK Hynix, Panmnesia (Security, MM and CXL)
- B.Sc. in Computer Science & Engineering, Chungnam National University (Class of 2025)

Opinions are my own.

My interests are:
Memory Management,
Computer Architecture,
Circuit Design,
Virtualization
I reduce maintainer burnout by deleting as much of the subsystem as possible.

I found yet another insightful arXiv paper exploring DAMON and finding grateful area to improve. My holiday would never be boring :)

Oh, I shouldn't tag regzbot when a commit hasn't landed in the mainline yet :)

It isn't really a "regression" yet

So, you want to read LKML with Gmail (experimental, testers needed)

what, there's a script to import linux kernel headers to QEMU.

From commit 412a8245 ("pci_regs.h: import from linux"):
```
It seems to make sense to import pci_regs.h from linux: why maintain our own?

As a first step, move the header to standard-headers, and add it to the update script.
```

I'm a little surprised and disappointed that the 2023 Linux Foundation TAB election only has five candidates running for the five open seats. All five of the candidates are existing TAB members.

It would seem like one of the issues the TAB should focus on this year is getting more people interested in TAB participation.

TIL:

DMA in PCI(e) means a device initiates memory read/write transactions.

But how to make a device initiate such a transaction is device-specific (i.e. a device implements a DMA command via its registers)

Wondering if a DMA interface can be added to CXL.io protocol so that page migrations can be done in a peer-to-peer manner without host interference. (in systems with multiple memory tiers)
