Operating Systems and Porting / Re: Fedora 34: going to 4k page size? Help needed
« Last post by pocock on January 08, 2021, 05:35:40 pm »I already asked this question in the same Fedora thread and it was answered there. It looks like an extra hassle for them but maybe they can be persuaded, after all, IBM now owns Red Hat.
The page size issue impacts multiple architectures, not only ppc64el. If proponents of bigger page sizes are willing to invest in resolving it, there are developers who will step up to help and there are tools we can use to detect signs of these problems. It is a bit like Covid contact tracing, if the right people act with the right tools, we can solve it but we also have other battles to fight too.
