The best series I have seen in Linux kernel this year:

Bye, bye LEGACY_IP!

[PATCH 0/6] Deprecate Legacy IP - David Woodhouse

@ffmancera lol i love this
@lkundrak it is satan-tier!
@ffmancera on a somewhat related note, it's not like i haven't found myself patching things to return ENOSYS when dealing with AF_INET so make sure i don't accidentally rely on IPv4, so i love this unironically
@ffmancera RFC1883, the IPv6 standard, was published in the final decade of the 1900s.
That's closer in time to the Apollo 11 moon landing than it was to today.

@ffmancera I love how it makes sense even despite 1st April.

LGTM!

@hrw @ffmancera

It makes a great use of the "carnival" nature of April 1 Fool's day. Ritually subverting the normative order for real but with plausible non-seriousness.

@ffmancera Wrong day ;-)

@geert FWIW, it might be real in the future.. who knows. ;)
