During the final day of the 2022 Linux Storage,
Filesystem, Memory-management and BPF Summit
(LSFMM), attention in the
memory-management track turned once again to the challenges posed by the
upcoming Compute Express Link (CXL) technology. Two sessions looked at

operation of the system. CXL offers a lot of flexibility, but changes will
be needed for the kernel to be able to take advantage of it.
