Another useless feature into Linux kernel. Who uses swap space nowadays?! Last time I used swap on Linux device was around Pentium 2 era but in reality closer to 486DX era

We use it in production. Workloads with unpredictable memory usage (32Mb to 4Gb per process), but we also want to start enough processes to saturate the CPU. Before we configured & enabled swap we were either sitting at low CPU utilisation or OOM

What's interesting about it? Wifi Mesh networks have been around for ... more than a decade?

Affected customer here, if you're curious on our original NANOG post on the whole situation:

Hey NANOG,

After receiving a BGPAlerter notification that one of our subnets (23.150.164.0/24) had been hijacked, I checked and noticed the prefix in question was missing RPKI. Assuming I had fat fingered something and butchered the ROA, I logged into ARIN and found that the prefix was missing from our resource list entirely, and had been reallocated to another organization and announced from their network. I created a ticket in ARIN and called immediately.

They confirmed that our subnet had been accidentally reallocated to another customer, and that they are currently working on returning it to us. After a couple hours, they told us the other organization will stop announcing the prefix, and WHOIS will be returned shortly.

I’m guessing there’s no way to prevent this kind of thing on our side if the RPKI ROA itself is removed along with the allocation? I’m planning on adding checks to look for missing ROAs (in addition to invalid/expiring ones), which I'm guessing would've caught this earlier.

Have any of you had anything like this happen with ARIN or another RIR? I’m especially curious what might have happened if we’d only noticed and reached out a few weeks later instead of within a few minutes.

The original report says

> The incorrect state persisted for approximately seven days before detection

However you're saying you've reached out "within a few minutes" ?

Then there's the 3rd option: Neither

Just keep everything in your inbox, find recent things by scrolling down, and anything beyond that is basically inaccessible, since the search is so bad

(I'm in camp archive everything, delete nothing; but see the Neither camp frequently in colleagues)

Same in NZ, never seen a dishwasher with a hot water connection.

If you check the manual you might find that you can hook the single inlet pipe up to the hot water tap.
