Version 5.0 of the GNU Health Hospital Information System has been released. This project, working to support medical offices, shows just how far the free-software effort can reach. Changes in this release include improved reporting and analytics, more comprehensive handling ...
Transparent huge pages (THPs) are, theoretically, supposed to allow processes to benefit from larger page sizes without changes to their code. This does work, but the performance impacts from THPs are not always a benefit, so system administrators with specific knowledge of...
The extensible scheduler class ('sched_ext') allows the loading of a custom CPU scheduler into the kernel as a set of BPF functions; it was merged for the 6.12 kernel release. Since then, sched_ext has enabled a wide range of experimentation with scheduling algorithms. At...
The OsmAnd map and navigation app project recently celebrated its 15th anniversary. All these 15 years can be roughly divided into three stages. For the first five years, we built the very basic functionality—offline maps and navigation that just worked. Over the next...

A change proposal to end support for 32-bit x86 (i686) applications on the x86_64 architecture with the Fedora 44 release has been withdrawn after significant pushback. As proposed, the change could have had a significant impact on gamers, compiler development, and the...

Linus has released 6.16-rc4 for testing. 'Despite a fairly large merge window, things continue to look fairly calm on the rc front'.

In 2023, Fujita Tomonori wrote a Rust version of the existing driver for the Asix AX88796B embedded Ethernet controller. At slightly more than 100 lines, it's about as simple as a driver can be, and therefore is a useful touchstone for the differences between writing Rust...
The history of the bcachefs filesystem in the kernel has been turbulent, most recently with Linus Torvalds refusing a pull request for the 6.16-rc3 release. Torvalds has now pulled the code in question, but also said: I think we'll be parting ways in the 6.17 merge window. ...

Over on the Collabora blog, Tathagata Roy has an update on the progress of targeting the Coccinelle tool for matching and transforming source code to Rust. The Coccinelle for Rust project, which we covered in a 2024 talk by Roy at Kangrejos, is adding the ability to...
Kernel development and machine learning seem like vastly different areas of endeavor; there are not, yet, stories circulating about the vibe-coding of new memory-management algorithms. There may well be places where machine learning (and large language models — LLMs — in ...
