Re: UKSM: What's maintainers think about it?

Hi All,

I'm not mantainer at all, but I've being using UKSM for a long time and remember
to port it to 3.16 family once.
UKSM seems good and stable and, at least for me, doesn't raised any errors.
AFAIK the only limitation I know (maybe I has been fixed already) it isn't able
to work together with zram stuff due to some race-conditions.

Cheers,

Good time of day, people.
I try to find 'mm' subsystem specific people and lists, but list
linux-mm looks dead and mail archive look like deprecated.
If i must to sent this message to another list or add CC people, let me know.
linux-mm@kvack.org is alive and well.

If questions are already asked (i can't find activity before), feel
free to kick me.

The main questions:
1. Somebody test it? I see many reviews about it.
I already port it to latest linux-next-git kernel and its work without issues.

(if it matter, i can describe use cases and results, if somebody ask it)

2. Developers of UKSM already tried to merge it? Somebody talked with uksm devs?
offtop: now i try to communicate with dev's on kerneldedup.org forum,
but i have problems with email verification and wait admin
registration approval.
(i already sent questions to
http://kerneldedup.org/forum/home.php?mod=space&username=xianai ,
because him looks like team leader)

3. I just want collect feedbacks from linux maintainers team, if you
decide what UKSM not needed in kernel, all other comments (as i
understand) not matter.

Like KSM, but better.

It's the first I've heard of it.  No, as far as I know there has been
no attempt to upstream UKSM.
