A bit of a retrospective on #Incus in 2024 and what to look forward to in 2025!

util-linux has merged support for statmount() and listmount() to list mounts:
https://github.com/util-linux/util-linux/pull/3092#event-15865684400
This should be a nice performance improvement.
See https://brauner.io/2024/12/16/list-all-mounts.html for some details on listmount() and statmount().
It's a gamma compensated neutron ionisation chamber!
Basically two chambers in one, sharing one electrode. One chamber is coated in boron to make it neutron sensitive, the other isn't and with some clever wiring of both chambers you can make sure the current on the shared electrode is just from neutrons, regardless of the gamma background!
You'll typically find these very close to a reactor core, used for measuring power.
I've written a post that shows how to list all mounts in all mount namespaces (all mounts on the system) using new apis we added to the #vfs last year.
Here's a blog story with the links to all those #systemd257 stories on Mastodon:

Enjoy! And stay tuned for #systemd258!
