Bcachefs Merged into the Linux 6.7 Kernel
Bcachefs Merged into the Linux 6.7 Kernel
There is a discussion on Hacker News, but feel free to comment here as well.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Less than twenty-four hours after Bcachefs was submitted for Linux 6.7, this new open-source file-system has been successfully merged for this next kernel version.
Given the past struggles to get Bcachefs mainlined, I certainly didn't expect to see Linus Torvalds act so soon on merging it.
But after it spent all of the 6.6 cycle within Linux-Next, overnight Linus Torvalds did in fact land this new file-system developed by Kent Overstreet.
It's merged and I'll be running some fresh Bcachefs file-system benchmarks soon on Phoronix.
Keep in mind though this file-system is initially considered experimental.
