The 6.8 kernel was released on March 10 after a typical, nine-week development cycle. Over this time, 1,938 developers contributed 14,405 non-merge changesets, making 6.8 into a slower cycle than 6.7 (but busier than 6.6), with the lowest number of developers participating...

Linus has released the 6.8 kernel. So it took a bit longer for the commit counts to come down this release than I tend to prefer, but a lot of that seemed to be about various selftest updates (networking in particular) rather than any actual real sign of problems. And the...
Andrew 'bunnie' Huang provides an update on his IRIS infrared chip-scanning project as the starting point for a detailed summary on how chip customers can detect forgeries and modifications in general. The technique works because although silicon looks opaque at visible...

Name collisions aren't just a problem for software development—organizations, projects, and software that have the same or similar names can cause serious confusion. That was certainly the case on February 28 when the Open Collective Foundation (OCF) began to notify its...
Before loading a BPF program, the kernel must verify that the program is safe to run; among other things, that verification includes ensuring that the program will terminate within a bounded time. That requirement has long made writing loops in BPF a challenging task. The...

While programmers are used to having tools to check their code for stylistic problems, writers often limit automatic checks of their texts to spelling and, sometimes, grammar, because there are not a lot of options for further checking. If that is the case, Vale, an...

The Fedora Project switched to MariaDB as the default implementation of MySQL in Fedora 19 in 2013. Once a drop-in replacement for MySQL, MariaDB has diverged enough that this is no longer the case—and, despite concerns about Oracle and optimism that MariaDB would supplant My...
The postmarketOS project, which produces a Linux distribution for phones and mobile devices, has announced that it is in the early stages of adding systemd to make it easier to support GNOME and KDE. Users who prefer the OpenRC init system are assured they will still have...
QUIC is a UDP-based transport protocol that forms the foundation of HTTP/3. It was initially developed at Google in 2012, and became an IETF standard in 2021. Work on the protocol did not stop with its standardization, however. The QUIC Working Group published several...

The kernel's memory-management subsystem is built on the concept of 'zones', which were initially added to describe the physical characteristics of the memory pages contained within them. Over time, zones have taken on more of a policy-related role as well. With a patch set...

It has long been possible to run multiple Python interpreters in the same process — via the C API, but not within the language itself. Eric Snow has been working to make this ability available in the language for many years. Now, Snow has published PEP 734 ('Multiple...

The 6.8-rc7 kernel prepatch is out for testing. So we finally have a week where things have calmed down, and in fact 6.8-rc7 is smaller than usual at this point in time. So if that keeps up (but that's a fairly notable 'if') I won't feel like I need to do an rc8 this...
