F-Droid and Google's Developer Registration Decree
The F-Droid project cannot require that developers register their apps through Google, but at the same time, we cannot "take over" the application identifiers for the open-source apps we distribute, as that would effectively seize exclusive distribution rights to those applications.
If it were to be put into effect, the developer registration decree will end the F-Droid project and other free/open-source app distribution sources as we know them today, and the world will be deprived of the safety and security of the catalog of thousands of apps that can be trusted and verified by any and all. F-Droid's myriad users will be left adrift, with no means to install — or even update their existing installed — applications.

The 6.17 kernel has been released
Other than that, there' the usual driver fixlets (GPU and networking dominate as usual, but "dominate" is still pretty small), there's some minor random other driver updates, some filesystem noise, and core kernel and mm.
And some selftest updates.
Significant features in this release include better control over x86 Spectre mitigations, live patching support on 64-bit Arm platforms, a number of pidfd improvements, the removal of special support for uniprocessor systems, initial support for proxy execution, experimental large-folio support in the Btrfs filesystem, the file_getattr() and file_setattr() system calls, and support for the DualPI2 congestion-control protocol.
See the LWN merge-window summaries (part 1, part 2) for more information. In addition, KernelNewbies has a look at the changes that went into 6.17.

OpenBGPD 8.9 released
Claudio Jeker (claudio@) announced the release of version 8.9 of OpenBGPD, the OpenBSD project's Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) daemon:
We have released OpenBGPD 8.9, which will be arriving in the OpenBGPD directory of your local OpenBSD mirror soon. This release includes the following changes to the previous release: * In verbose mode log the NOTIFICATION data for UPDATE errors. * Fix a busy loop error in the pfkey handling for OpenBSD and FreeBSD. * Introduce monotime - an internal time API using microsecond resolution. * Fix accounting of the pending update counter * Use new ibufq interface instead of handrolling the same. * Large refactoring of internal APIs to make the code easier to share and cleaner.[$] Jumping into openSUSE Leap 16
The openSUSE project is nearing the release of Leap 16, its first major release since openSUSE Leap 15 in May 2018. This release brings some changes to the core of the distribution aside from the usual software upgrades; YaST has been retired, SELinux has replaced AppArmor as the default mandatory access control (MAC) system, and more. If all goes according to plan, Leap 16 final should be released in early October, with planned support through 2031.

Cuni: Tracing JITs in the real world @ CPython Core Dev Sprint
Adding a JIT completely changes how we reason about performance of a given program, for two reasons:
- JITted code can be very fast if your code conforms to the heuristics applied by the JIT compiler, but unexpectedly slow(-ish) otherwise;
- the speed of a given piece of code might depend heavily on what happens elsewhere in the program, making it much harder to reason about performance locally.
The end result is that modifying a line of code can significantly impact seemingly unrelated code. This effect becomes more pronounced as the JIT becomes more sophisticated.
Cuni also gave a talk on Python performance, which LWN covered, at EuroPython 2025 in July.

Submitting unverified or low-quality machine-generated content (sometimes called "AI slop") creates an unfair review burden on the community and is not an acceptable contribution.
