Description:
Jan Kara has been working
on cleaning up how buffer
heads are used by some kernel filesystems. In a short
filesystem-track session at the 2026 Linux Storage,
Filesystem, Memory Management, and BPF Summit , he gave an update on
that work and where it is headed. Topics included generic infrastructure
to track buffer heads for metadata, a buffer-head cleanup for the Amiga filesystem, and some planned locking fixes.
