Proud to have @tigerbeetle.com as our partner for the Radical Cup NA season! I have the greatest respect for how TigerBeetle does engineering, it resonates deeply with how I work. We have collaborated on the software front, now we take this partnership to the track!

Jens @axboe.bsky.social put Linux in the fast lane with io_uring. His son Jonas takes the need for speed to the track. And TigerBeetle is proud to partner. Catch Jonas at Sebring this weekend for the Radical Cup North America season opener!

marcan on leaving the Asahi project: "No matter how much we did, how many impossible feats we pulled off, people always wanted more. And more." Yep this is basically ANY open source project. Doesn't matter what you give people, they will always complain about something.

The core of this work is now upstream in Linus's tree, and the per-fs bits have been rebased on top of that: git.kernel.dk/cgit/linux/l... xfs/btrfs/nfs should be fine to include, ext4 would ideally need an iomap conversion first.

Posted v8 of the uncached buffered IO patchset. This should be fine for merging at this point, let's hope we can make the 6.14 kernel release. lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdeve... Separate branches exist for the core support and fs support, see the cover letter for details.
