Description:
On April 21, Andrew Morton let
it be known that he intends to begin stepping away from the
maintainership of kernel's memory-management subsystem a responsibility
he has carried since before memory management was even seen as its own subsystem. At the 2026 Linux Storage, Filesystem, Memory Management, and
BPF Summit, one of the first sessions in the memory-management track was devoted to how the maintainership would be managed going forward. There
are a lot of questions still to be answered.
