The long-running effort to complete the work on stacking (or composing) the
Linux security modules (LSMs) recently encountered a barrier—in the form of
a "suggestion" to discontinue it from Linus Torvalds. His complaint
revolved around the indirect function calls that are used to implement
LSMs, but he also did not think much of the effort to switch away from
those calls. While it does not appear that a major course-change is in store
for LSMs, it is clear that Torvalds is not happy with the direction of that
subsystem.

The Rust programming language, it is hoped, will bring a new level of
safety to the Linux kernel. At the moment, though, there are still a
number of impediments to getting useful Rust code into the kernel. In the
Embedded Open Source Summit track of the
Open
Source Summit North America, Fabien Parent provided an overview of his
work aimed at improving the infrastructure needed to write the device
drivers needed by embedded systems in Rust; there is still some work to be
done.

The Open Home Foundation has
announced
its existence as a home and support resource for free home-automation
projects.
We created the Open Home Foundation to fight for the fundamental
principles of privacy, choice, and sustainability for smart
homes. And every person who lives in one.
Ahead of today, we've transferred over 240 projects, standards,
drivers, and libraries—Home Assistant, ESPHome, Zigpy, Piper,
Improv Wi-Fi, Wyoming, and so many more—to the Open Home
Foundation. This is all about looking into the future. We've done
this to create a bulwark against surveillance capitalism, the risk
of buyout, and open-source projects becoming abandonware. To an
extent, this protection extends even against our future selves—so
that smart home users can continue to benefit for years, if not
decades. No matter what comes.

One of the mainstays of the the Linux Foundation's Open Source Summit is the "fireside chat"
(sans fire) between Linus Torvalds and Dirk Hohndel to discuss open source and
Linux kernel topics of the day. On April 17, at Open Source Summit
North America (OSSNA) in Seattle, Washington, they held with tradition
and discussed a range of topics including proper whitespace parsing,
security, and the current AI craze.

Peter Hutterer
announces
udev-hid-bpf, a tool to facilitate the loading of BPF programs that
make human-input devices work correctly.
eBPF was originally written for network packet filters but as of
kernel v6.3 and thanks to Benjamin, we have BPF in the HID
subsystem. HID actually lends itself really well to BPF because,
well, we have a byte array and to fix our devices we need to do
complicated things like "toggle that bit to zero" or "swap those
two values".
See this article for more information on
the BPF-HID mechanism.

Linus has
released 6.9-rc5 for testing.
But if you ignore those oddities, it all looks pretty normal and
things appear fairly calm. Which is just as well, since the first
part of the week I was on a quick trip to Seattle, and the second
part of the week I've been doing a passable imitation of the
Fontana di Trevi, except my medium is mucus.

Gregory Price recently posted
a patch set that adds support for weighted memory interleaving — allowing a
process's memory to be distributed between
non-uniform memory access (NUMA)
nodes in a more controlled way.
According to his performance measurements, the patch set could provide a
significant improvement for computers with network-attached memory.
The patch set also
introduces new system calls and paves the way for future extensions
intended to give processes more control over their own memory.

Gentoo Council member Michał Górny posted
an RFC to the gentoo-dev mailing
list in late February about banning "'AI'-backed (LLM/GPT/whatever)
contributions" to the Gentoo Linux project. Górny wrote that the spread of the
"AI bubble" indicated a need for Gentoo to formally take a stand on AI
tools. After a lengthy discussion, the Gentoo Council voted
unanimously this week to adopt his proposal and ban contributions generated with AI/ML tools.

Kernel developers, like conscientious developers for many projects, will
often include checks in the code for conditions that are never expected to
occur, but which would indicate a serious problem should that expectation
turn out to be incorrect. For years, developers have been encouraged (to
put it politely) to avoid using assertions that crash the machine for such
conditions unless there is truly no alternative. Increasingly, though, use
of the kernel's WARN_ON() family of macros, which developers were
told to use instead, is also being discouraged.

Managing to-do lists is something of a universal necessity. While some
people handle them mentally or on paper, others resort to a web-based tool or
a mobile
application. For those preferring the command line, the MIT-licensed
Taskwarrior offers a flexible solution
with a healthy community and lots of extensions.
