Maintaining DAMON (https://damonitor.github.io). All opinions are my own.
@hyeyoo @kernellogger Obviously very interesting topic. To my humble understanding, the point of this awesome project is the lightweight and fine-grained monitoring and adaptive tuning, which comes from the underlying use of BPF. That makes sense to me, as BPF is awesome. Nevertheless, it doesn't look like the panacea for every tunable knobs. Rather than that, it seems need per-case tuning implementation. I think it might be able to be useful for DAMON parameters, but tbh I'm not sure. Anyway, interesting work. Hope to have more chance to hear about that :)

DAMON userspace tool (damo)[0] has packaged for Debian/Ubuntu in addition to Fedora. It also turned out that it was already packaged for ArchLinux. You can visit repology.org[1] for the list of damo packaged distros.

@krzk I think adding maintainer profile[1] and using 'Submit Checklist Addendum' for the suggestion could also be used. I'm unsure how many people will read and follow it, but I think having such a public recommendation would not make something worse.

It's been a great week at LSFMMBPF and OSSummit NA. Best of all, I don't think I'll be wasting any time shopping for t-shirts for a while.

LSF/MM/BPF topic for DAMON's status and future plans[1] has scheduled[2] for next Monday. I will also have a user-space focused DAMON talk[3] at OSSummit NA, which will be held on the week. Looking forward to the discussions!

@kernellogger No one ever asked, that sounds like a good idea.

Maybe we can do that in the future as we wean people off of the 6 year model which has obviously failed to work well, thanks!

Pet peeve of the day: all the people talking about how ChatGPT is not “conscious” and how it does not “understand” what it is saying, but just putting likely-sounding words together into likely-sounding sentences.

Extra bonus points for using an example of a math problem as a way to show how these AI chat-bots talk about things they don’t really understand.

The irony. The lack of self-awareness. It burns.

Random first trial post: today, March 14th, is the 29th anniversary of the Linux 1.0 announcement.

Of course, there are other arguably more important dates in Linux history, but this is one of them.
