The BPF subsystem, which allows code to be loaded into the kernel from user
space and safely executed in the kernel context, is bound to create a number of
challenges for the kernel as a whole. One might not think that allocating
memory for BPF programs would be high on the list of problems, but life
(and memory management) can be surprising. The attempts to do a better job
of providing space for compiled BPF code have, to date, only been partially
successful; now Song Liu is back with
a new
approach to finish the job.

FFmpeg is an indispensable tool for
working with
audio and video streams, but it can be challenging to learn to use well.
FFmpeg — The
Ultimate Guide, posted by Csaba Kopias, can help. "This guide
covers the ins and outs of FFmpeg starting with fundamental concepts and
moving to media transcoding and video and audio processing providing
practical examples along the way."

The
6.1-rc7 kernel prepatch has been
released for testing.
There is really nothing here that makes me at all worried, except
that it's just a bit more than I'm comfortable with. It should just
have slowed down more by now.
As a result, I'm now pretty sure that this is going to be one of
those "we'll have an extra week and I'll make an rc8"
releases. Which then in turn means that now the next merge window
will be solidly in the holiday season.

For those who are waiting for Linux on Apple hardware, the Asahi Linux
project has put out
a detailed
report on progress toward a working kernel and distribution.
This kind of safety model is not new: it is already commonplace on
Android phones, where it is usually implemented in DSP
firmware. But of course, the desktop Linux ecosystem doesn’t even
have a speaker EQ database framework yet, nevermind safety models!
The eternal lagging behind of Linux audio strikes again. What’s the
plan? While this isn’t settled yet, our current idea is to
implement the safety model in a stand-alone daemon that captures
the voltage/current feedback data from the ALSA device, and drives
the mixer volume itself as as means of implementing soft power
limits, together with some kind of “safety watchdog interlock” with
the kernel that only enables higher volume limits when the daemon
is active and running

The Document Foundation has
announced
the hiring of a quality-assurance analyst, bringing its staff up to 13
people.
A lot of my time will be spent on triaging the issues users report
on Bugzilla – our bug-reporting platform. There is a lot of
activity on Bugzilla, and classifying and testing the reports is
fundamental for us to focus on the most pressing issues, help the
work developers are doing, and keep improving the software for
everyone! Part of the work will also be to analyse and summarise
the wealth of data available to help us see the bigger picture and
make better decisions when allocating resources.

The
6.1-rc6 kernel prepatch is out for
testing.
I'm still waffling about whether there will be an rc8 or not,
leaning a bit towards it happening. We'll see - it will make the
6.2 merge window leak into the holidays, but maybe that's fine and
just makes people make sure they have everything lined up and
ready *before* the merge window opens, the way things _should_
work.

Even a single kernel oops is never a good thing; it is an indication that something has
gone badly wrong in the system somewhere and a straightforward
recovery is not possible. But it seems that oopsing a large number
of times has the potential to be even worse. To head off problems that
might result from repeated oopsing, there
is currently work afoot to put an upper limit on the number of times that
the kernel can be allowed to oops before just giving up and rebooting.

Libre Arts
looks at
the GIMP as the 3.0 release approaches.
Releases like this are too rare to disregard and thus all the more
to treasure. In one swift motion the team is doing away with
floating selections and bringing strokes/outlines for text. But
this has been a bumpy road

The Register
looks
at the discussion around the GNU Tools Infrastructure proposal.
Sourceware, a volunteer group that has been supporting various
critical FOSS developer tools for more than two decades, is being
courted by The Linux Foundation's Open Source Security Foundation
(OpenSSF). The OpenSSF aims to improve open source software
security by providing Sourceware projects with more modern IT
infrastructure.
But some members of the Sourceware community fear that accepting
the help of the OpenSSF would give the corporate Linux world more
leverage over FOSS developer tools. They would prefer to seek
support from the Software Freedom Conservancy, a charitable
non-profit that they believe is better aligned with software
freedom.
LWN covered this discussion back in
September.

The merge window for the 6.1 release brought in
basic support for writing kernel code in Rust
— with an emphasis on "basic". It is possible to create a "hello world"
module for 6.1, but not much can be done beyond that. There is, however, a
lot more Rust code for the kernel out there; it's just waiting for its turn to be
reviewed and merged into the mainline. Miguel Ojeda has now posted
the next
round of Rust patches, adding to the support infrastructure in the
kernel.
