@srtcd424 @brauner I really don't get the point of that, the kernel has never had a long term viability plan, it has evolved, but you mention rust and suddenly everyone cares about alpha and mips32, multiple compilers, 20 year stability, stuff the C side grew over 30 years

I went down a well of what if? folios today, and ended up in AGP code, and even though I'm probably AGP maintainer, I'd forgotten in 2007 I might have understood some of this stuff.

You should always worry when a maintainer writes patches.

@brauner I had a lot of Grandpa Simpson/old man shakes fist at cloud feels, in my day we used memory unsafe languages and C++ was the future and we liked it! Definitely a lot of off point wandering, maybe next time Linus will save us the journey 🙂

"So you'll need a vmap for folios to support this use case."

this isn't where today was meant to lead.

@lynne@pars.ee @gfxstrand@social.treehouse.systems indeed! that card is one of the few that could actually take skin off if you tried to remove it straight after using it

the Astro's Playroom GPU song might have to precede my entrance to all rooms, I'm considering just making unboxing videos of that song and opening the 5080 box until I get copy striked.

@krh I'm sure NVIDIA GPU shader engines share some C64 history 😛

@never_released@mastodon.social for LLM it seems like you have to hand craft layers to offload which is definitely beyond the effort anyone wants to put in that isn't the vendor

@chris@recurse.social this is support for GPU with built in av1 hardware, it does nothing on GPUs without it
