🐧Linux Kernel 6.14 Released
—Linux Magazine

「 One of the standout features for kernel 6.14 is that more options have been included for the writing of Rust drivers. Yes, it's the same feature that has recently caused a bit of a stir in the Linux community, as there has been some infighting among developers over adding Rust code to improve the kernel 」

Linux MagazineLinux Kernel 6.14 Released » Linux MagazineThe latest Linux kernel has arrived with extra Rust support and more.

The initial nova-core driver stub was merged to #Linux mainline for #LinuxKernel 6.15[1].

#Nova is going to be a #kernel driver for #Nvidia's modern GPUs written in #Rustlang. It is the successor of the #Nouveau kernel driver and serve as base for drivers like #NVK.

The core driver stub is not really useful for anything yet. But that should change soon – and I guess will be the turning point that'll sell #Rust for Linux to the world. 🥳

Il curioso ritardo del kernel Linux 6.14: uno sguardo sulla vita di Linus Torvalds.
La mancata pubblicazione domenicale del kernel Linux 6.14 non è passata inosservata nel panorama open source. Sebbene i rilasci delle nuove versioni del kernel Linux non seguano necessariamente una cadenza settimanale, è consuetudine per Linus Torvalds effettuarli di domenica e il rilascio di questa versione era previsto per domenica scorsa. #kernel_6_14 #kernel #linux #UnoLinux

With the Linux kernel 6.14 out now, I noted in my quick-look overview about a bug that was fixed for the Steam Deck OLED model. Collabora have given a little more info on their work for this issue and how it was a challenge.

「 The new dmem cgroup for GPU memory usage is also worth noting. Many data centers and workstation users rely on hardware-accelerated computing, and ensuring GPU workloads remain stable is crucial 」

🐧GNU Linux-libre 6.14-gnu Deals With New Firmware Blobs From AMDXDNA & Other Drivers
@phoronix

「 Building off yesterday's Linux 6.14 release, the GNU Linux-libre 6.14-gnu downstream is now available for this flavor of the Linux kernel that strips out support for hardware/drivers depending upon non-open-source firmware/microcode as well as the ability to load proprietary kernel modules and other tainted code 」

Linux 6.14 changelog.
kernelnewbies.org/Linux_6.14

I'm really looking forward to #Slackware current ship #kernel 6.14. I'm especially interested in Landlock, and to take advantage of it, I'll compile my own kernel, a task I've mastered over the past decade... or
so I thought. Apparently, Slackware's philosophy is 'if you're not compiling a kernel, are you even really living?'
So, back to the make mines I go!

Then, I'll be running Landrun (github.com/Zouuup/landrun)

"'So it's early Monday morning […], and I'd love to have some good excuse for why I didn't do the 6.14 release yesterday on my regular Sunday afternoon release schedule.

I'd like to say that some important last-minute thing came up and delayed things.

But no. […] in the process just entirely forgot to actually ever cut the release. D'oh.

[…]

Judging by my pending pile of pull requests, 6.15 will be much busier.
