Current topics for LSF10/MM Summit 8-9 August in Boston

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Given that we're under two months out, I thought it would be time to
post a summary of the topics we've collected so far (Nick will post the
MM summit ones later).  Look this over, and if there's anything missing,
propose it ... or if you have cross Storage/FS/MM topics, post them too.

Oh, and since we're not the most organised bunch, if you posted a topic
and don't see it in the list, please resend ... we probably lost it in
an email shuffle.

Current Filesystem Topics:

Alex Elder	Upstream maintainer for XFS, general discussion on FS/IO
Aneesh Kumar	Rich-acl patches which work better with NFSv4 acl and CIFS acl
Anshul Madan	reflink for NFS
Chuck Lever	NFS/IPV6 and NFS O_DIRECT, Wu's read-ahead work, vitro perf tools
Eric Sandeen	Advances in testing, TRIM/DISCARD/Alignment, writeback sanity
James Lentini	reflink for NFS
Jan Kara	Discuss/drive sanity review of writeback and general ext*/jbd 
Michael Rubin	Writeback scaling
Sage Weil	Statlite, generic interface for describing file striping for distributed FS, VFS scalability
Al Viro	Sorting out d_revalidate and other dcache issues
Coly Li		directory/large file scalability
Sorin Faibish	Cache writeback discussion

Current Storage Topics:

Eric Seppanen	Next generation SSDs, performance implications on Linux I/O
Boaz Harrosh	PNFS performance considerations, bio_list based/async raidN for generic use; stable pages for I/O
FUJITA Tomonori	SCSI target mode, iSCSI, block layer SG (bsg), sg, IOMMU, DMA issues
Hannes Reinecke	libfc/multipath/error handing
James Smart	FCOE proposal for rework of the FC sysfs tree, work with Hannes on other transport/SCSI subsystem topics
Jeff Moyer	IO scheduler
Joel Becker	SAN management plugin
Martin Petersen	Updates on DIF/DIX, TRIM/DISCARD/UNMAP, generic support for WRITE_SAME

Plus some MM summit ones which Nick will summarise.

For the benefit of those who've forgotten here's the original Call for
topics and attendees:

This year we'll hold the Linux Storage and Filesystems summit jointly
with the VM summit on the two days before LinuxCon in Boston (that's
Sunday and Monday) at the Renaissance Hotel:

http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/linuxcon

We're planning to hold some sessions jointly and split into three tracks
(Filesystems, Storage and VM) for others, so we're encouraging proposals
for discussion that cover areas relevant to all three groups as well as
more specific technical topics.

Suggestions for agenda topics should be sent to

lsf10-pc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

and optionally cc the Linux list which would be most interested in it:

SCSI: linux-scsi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
FS: linux-fsdevel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (plus relevant fs specific list)
MM: linux-mm@xxxxxxxxx

Please tag your subject with [LSF/VM TOPIC] so those of us who're not
very organised can find them easily in our inboxes.  The agenda topics
and attendees will be selected by the programme committee, but the final
agenda will be by formed by consensus of the attendees on the day.

We'll try to cap attendance at around 20 per track to facilitate
discussions although the final numbers will depend on the room sizes
at the venue.

Requests to attend should be sent to:

lsf10-pc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

please summarise what you'll bring to the meeting, and what you'd like
to discuss.  please also tag your email with [ATTEND] so there's less
chance of it getting lost in the large mail pile.

Presentations are allowed to guide discussion, but are strongly
discouraged.  There will be no recording or audio bridge, however
written minutes will be published as in previous years:

If you have feedback on last year's meeting that we can use to improve
this year's, please also send that to:

lsf10-pc@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Thanks,

James Bottomley
