Users of SourceHut will have noticed that the site has been unreachable; Drew DeVault has now posted a report on what is happening (it's a distributed denial-of-service attack) and what is being done to recover. We deal with ordinary DDoS attacks in the normal course of...

For those of you still using DSA keys with SSH: the project has announced its plans to remove support for that algorithm around the beginning of 2025. The only remaining use of DSA at this point should be deeply legacy devices. As such, we no longer consider the costs of...
The data structure known as a 'closure' first found its way into the mainline kernel with the addition of bcache in the 3.10 development cycle. With the advent of bcachefs in 6.7, though, it acquired a second user and was moved to the kernel's lib directory, making it...

As part of my quest to master Emacs, which is sort of a sub-quest on the way toward learning more about Lisp, I have spent a fair amount of time discovering various corners of the Emacs world. One of those is the famous 'Org mode' that is used for a wide variety of...

The 4.14.336 stable kernel update has been released with a small handful of fixes; this is the end of the line for the 4.14 stable series: This is the LAST 4.14.y kernel to be released. It is now officially end-of-life. Do NOT use this kernel version anymore, please move...

A new release for any project with a fix for a 12-year old CVE is going to stand out pretty obviously; a recent release has a fix of that nature, but the trail of CVE-2012-5639 is rather elusive. The Apache OpenOffice project made its 4.1.15 release with fixes for four CVEs,...

The Vcc compiler has been announced. It’s exactly what the name implies: a clang-based compiler that outputs code that runs on Vulkan. Vcc can be thought of as a GLSL and HLSL competitor, but the true intent of this project is to retire the concept of shading languages...
OpenWrt developer John Crispin says: 'In 2024 the OpenWrt project turns 20 years! Let's celebrate this anniversary by launching our own first and fully upstream supported hardware design.' The rest of the message describes the proposed OpenWrt-native network-routing system,...
Thorsten Leemhuis writes about his plans for improving the kernel's regression handling in the coming year. Top-priority will be 'make regzbot more useful for kernel subsystem maintainers' from now on. My tracking efforts of course will continue, but everything except...
Anthony Shaw describes the new copy-and-patch JIT that has been proposed for Python 3.13. Copy-and-patch was selected because the compilation from bytecodes to machine code is done as a set of “templates” that are then stitched together and patched at runtime with the...

The 6.7 kernel was released on January 7 after a ten-week development cycle. This was, as it turns out, the busiest cycle ever with regard to the number of changesets merged. The time has come for our usual look at where all those changesets came from, with a side trip into...

Linus has released the 6.7 kernel. End result: 6.7 is (in number of commits: over 17k non-merge commits, with 1k+ merges) one of the largest kernel releases we've ever had, but the extra rc8 week was purely due to timing with the holidays, not about any difficulties with...
