The 2024 Linux
Storage, Filesystem, Memory-Management and BPF Summit was a development
conference, where discussion was prioritized and presentations with a lot
of slides were discouraged. Paul McKenney seemingly flouted this
convention in a joint session of the storage, filesystem, and
memory-management tracks where he presented about 50 slides — in five
minutes, twice. The subject was the use of the read-copy-update (RCU)
mechanism in the memory-reclaim process, and whether changes to RCU would
be needed for that purpose.
