Hi I would like to attend LSF/MM 2016 to participate in discussions around the optimization of the block layer and memory management for low latency NVM technologies. I'd be very interested in discussions pertaining to where we can take the work being done to add polling into the block layer and tying that into file-systems and applications. I would also be keen to discuss how we might extend the recent work to facilitate large persistent memory regions to IO memory (e.g. PCIe devices with large, persistent, memory regions). I am also keen to discuss topics associated with non-block based hardware devices including things like NVDIMM, OpenChannel SSDs and persistent memory exposed on PCIe devices. I spend quite a bit of time working on elements of the block layer (especially NVMe), the RDMA stack and (more recently) the NVDIMM/PMEM/DAX sections of the kernel.
