One last rc at the end of the year - and a Happy New Year to everybody! This would have been a very quiet week, if it wasn't for the final x86 PTI stuff - and that shows in the diffstat too. About half the rc6 work is x86 updates. The timing for this isn't wonderful, but it all looks nice and clean. Outside of the x86 updates, it's misc driver updates (usb, networking, rdma, sound), some perf tool
Ok, so it's not Sunday yet, but tomorrow is Christmas Eve, and while I've been in the US for over two decades, we still celebrate Christmas the only _right_ way - with Christmas Eve being the big day, and Christmas Day being just for recovery. So I'm doing the rc5 release a day early, in order to not have to do it during the actual Christmas festivities at our house. And it's not like I expect to
[PATCH] vfs: hard-ban creating files with control characters in the name Anything with bytes 1-31,127 will get -EACCES. Especially \n is bad: instead of natural file-per-line, you need an user-unfriendly feature of -print0 added to every producer and consumer; a good part of users either don't know or don't feel the need to bother with escaping this snowflake, thus introducing security holes. The
I'm announcing the release of the 4.13.1 kernel. All users of the 4.13 kernel series must upgrade. The updated 4.13.y git tree can be found at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git linux-4.13.y and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git;a=summary thanks, greg k-h ------------ Makefi
The original intent of this series was to add a per-inode DAX flag to ext4 so that it would be consistent with XFS. In my travels I found and fixed several related issues in both ext4 and XFS. I'm not fully happy with the ways that ext4 DAX interacts with conflicting features (journaling, inline data and encryption). My goal with this series was to make all these interactions as consistent as poss

So last week was actually somewhat eventful, but not enough to push me to delay 4.13. Most of the changes since rc7 are actually networking fixes, the bulk of them to various drivers. With apologies to the authors of said patches, they don't look all that interesting (which is definitely exactly what you want just before a release). Details in the appended shortlog. Note that the shortlog below is
Things have been pretty calm, and rc6 is out there. Nothing particular really stands out - it all looks normal, with just under half of the patch being drivers (networking stands out, but there's infiniband, sound and misc other things too), a third of the rest being arch updates, and the rest is just misc more or less core stuff all over. The appended shortlog is about as descriptive as anything
[RFC 1/2] misc: Add vboxguest driver for Virtual Box Guest integration This commit adds a driver for the Virtual Box Guest PCI device used in Virtual Box virtual machines. Enabling this driver will add support for Virtual Box Guest integration features such as copy-and-paste, seamless mode and OpenGL pass-through. This driver also offers vboxguest IPC functionality which is needed for the vboxfs d
[RFC 0/2] Add Virtual Box vboxguest and vboxsf guest drivers to the mainline kernel Hello Greg, Arnd, Alexander, et al., Here is a first RFC version of my cleaned up version of the VirtualBox vboxguest and vboxsf guest drivers. This is an RFC because there are still some checkpatch and other small style issues which I need to fix. I'm posting this now because the majority of the major cleanup thes

So originally I was just planning on releasing the final 4.11 today, but while we didn't have a *lot* of changes the last week, we had a couple of really annoying ones, so I'm doing another rc release instead. I did get fixes for the issues that popped up, so I could have released 4.11 as-is, but it just doesn't feel right. It's not like another week of letting this release mature will really hurt
For too long, a small group of elites listed in the corrupt MAINTAINERS file have reaped the rewards of maintainership, while the developers have done all the real work. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. Last year there was the great Linux Exit ("Lexit") movement. People all over the Internet came together and demanded that power be restored to the developers. They created a historic fork based on Linux 2.4, back
