[$] Block-layer bounce buffering bounces out of the kernel
As the end of the 1990s approached, a lot of kernel-development effort was
going into improving support for 32-bit systems

have remained in the kernel to this day. One of those compromises —
bounce buffering of I/O requests in the block layer — has finally be … ⌘ Read more
