The Linux Kernel Seeing Rare Code Activity Around SPARC64 • Phoronix
｢ SPARC64 was the last architecture not using the generic vDSO library code that in turn prevented some necessary code clean-ups. With this patch series transitioning the SPARC code to the generic vDSO infrastructure saves several hundred lines of code and slightly reducing the SPARC maintenance burden ｣
www.phoronix.comThe Linux Kernel Seeing Rare Code Activity Around SPARC64One of the CPU architectures continuing to be supported by the mainline Linux kernel but rarely ever seeing any code activity is the SPARC64 architecture port for the once-interesting processors from Sun Microsystems.

@edboythinks personally I'm in the process of.migrating from #Ubuntu fonts to #B612 because they are superior yet more permissively licensed.
- Sadly I've not found an elegant way to force #SunGalatDemi into the #Linux #kernel as #Console #Font and #license-wise that would not work (#CDDL is incompatible with #GPLv2) nor would it make sense as any machine that I can't #SSH into runs in #MDA mode thus only has the hardware fonts of that mode anyway...

2/ Another article about a feature recently added to the #XFS filesystem that is not considered experimental any more since #Linux 6.16-rc1 (the text was also written by the responsible developers):
""In this blog post, we discuss a new XFS feature [with] the ability to exchange arbitrary file contents atomically. […]
What Problems Does This Solve?
The first problem is that the Linux file I/O interface does not specify that writes to multiple ranges of a file must be persisted in an all or nothing fashion, which means that file contents can be inconsistent after a crash. […]
The second problem is that some external readers of a structured file must never see an update in progress.
A third problem in this space concerns software defined storage. […]""

#XFS Directory Parent Pointers since #Linux 6.16-rc1 are not considered experimental in the #kernel any more[1]. They allow constructing a file path from a file descriptor or a file handle, which should result in better redundancy and reporting.
In case your want to know more about it, checkout the recently published text "#XFS - Directory Parent Pointers in UEK8"[2], which was written by Allison Henderson and Darrick Wong, who developed and upstreamed the feature.

Ask UbuntuUbuntu 24.04 2 LTS running 6.8 kernel instead of 6.11Based on the kernel lifecycle documentation, my Ubuntu 24.04 LTS should be on a newer kernel than it is.
Should it have been upgraded automatically?
Is it a problem if it hasn't? Should I do anything
It's looking like #linux #kernel 6.14+ will contain the driver I need for an intel AX201 on a #Debian 12, which doesn't work on my #thinkpad right now (no wifi! agh!).
I'm telling you all that for the context behind this question:
Is it bad/dangerous/unstable to run Debian 12 on kernel 6.14?
Further, should I use the Ubuntu kernel or get the "raw" kernel?
Opinionated posts are welcome and helpful. Please do dump your thoughts at me.
#Linux users who have #Secure Boot enabled on their systems knowingly or unknowingly rely on a key from #Microsoft that is set to expire in September. After that point, Microsoft will no longer use that key to sign the shim first-stage #UEFI #bootloader that is used by Linux distributions to boot the #kernel with Secure Boot.
But the replacement key, which has been available since 2023, may not be installed on many systems; worse yet, it may require the #hardware vendor to issue an update for the system #firmware, which may or may not happen. It seems that the vast majority of systems will not be lost in the shuffle, but it may require extra work from distributors and users.

Intel quits Clear Linux (their inhouse distro) | Contributing upstream code continues for Linux the kernel 
◉Not a tragedy to quit it
◉ ...More resources freed @ Intel to contribute to Linux
◉Intel doesn't really need their own distribution
◉AMD doesn't have an own distro yet contributes upstream to the kernel / other software
◉Slightly sad Intel shut Clear Linux down - but it never really took off (?) in wider sense

Clear Linux OS Forum · All good things come to an end: Shutting down Clear Linux OSAfter years of innovation and community collaboration, we’re ending support for Clear Linux OS. Effective immediately, Intel will no longer provide security patches, updates, or maintenance for Clear Linux OS, and the Clear Linux OS GitHub repository will be archived in read-only mode. So, if you’re currently using Clear Linux OS, we strongly recommend planning your migration to another actively maintained Linux distribution as soon as possible to ensure ongoing security and stability.
