[$] Flexible data placement

Description:
At
the 2025 Linux Storage, Filesystem, Memory
Management, and BPF Summit (LSFMM+BPF) Kanchan Joshi and Keith Busch led a combined storage and filesystem session on data placement, which concerns
how the data on a storage device is actually written. In a discussion
that hearkened back to previous summits, the idea is to give hints to enterprise-class
SSDs to help them make better choices on where the data should go; hinting
was most recently discussed at the summit in 2023 . If SSDs can
group data with similar lifetimes together, it can lead to longer life for
the devices, but there is a need to work out the details.
