The 6.11-rc5 kernel prepatch is out for testing. "Other than the timing, there's not a whole lot unusual here. The diffstat looks fairly flat, which means 'mostly pretty small changes'." Linus Torvalds added a note that today marks the 33rd anniversary of the first Linux announcement; "A third of a century. And it *still* isn't ready".

Sebastian Benoit (benno@) announced the release of version 9.2 of rpki-client, the essential component for routing security.

See the full announcement for further details.

Here are some key excerpts from the release announcement:

This release includes the following changes to the previous release: - Ensure synchronization jobs are stopped when the timeout is reached. - Fix a corner case in repository handling. If the last RRDP repository failed to load, rpki-client would fail to fall back to rsync due to an ordering bug in the event loop. - Improve detection of duplicate file paths. Only trigger a duplicate error if a valid path is revisited otherwise a bad CA could prevent legitimate files from being considered valid. - Normalize internal representation of the caRepository to have a trailing slash and ensure that the rpkiManifest is a file inside it.

All files from the original import of OpenBSD have now been modified (or deleted). Appropriately, Theo de Raadt (deraadt@) made the change:

CVSROOT: /cvs Module name: src Changes by: deraadt@cvs.openbsd.org 2024/08/23 11:29:08 Modified files: games/quiz : Makefile games/quiz/datfiles: index Added files: games/quiz/datfiles: ship Removed files: games/quiz/datfiles: greek Log message: The greek quiz is so obscure that it is ridiculous -- noone can play this. Replace it with a new quiz about galley (ship) parts. This commit changes the *LAST UNMODIFIED ORIGINAL FILE* (meaning revision 1.1.1.1) from the original import that created OpenBSD on Oct 18, 1995. With this commit, we have completed an amusing mission of replacing the final parts of the original OpenBSD. We have reached OpenBSD of Theseus. ideas & assistance from mglocker, naval terminology help from jmc

Every year the Android Micro-conference brings the upstream Linux community and the Android systems developers together at the Linux Plumbers Conference. They discuss how they can effectively engage the existing issues and collaborate on upcoming changes to the Android platform and their upstream dependencies.

This year Android MC is scheduled to start at 10am on Friday, 20th Sep at Hall L1 (Austria Center). Attending Android MC gives you a chance to contribute to the broader discussion on Android platform ecosystem and Linux kernel development. You can share your own experiences, offer feedback, and help shape the future direction of these technologies.

Discussion topics for this year include:

• Android kernel support and long term AOSP maintainership to support device longevity
• The pursuit of AOSP developer community
• Android Generic bootloader efforts
• Supporting generic restricted dmabuf heap
• memcg v2 updates in Android
• Bring-up devices with 16kb page_size support
• ublk based zero copy I/O use case in Android
• Leveraging large folios (mTHP) on Android phones

Android MC will be followed by a Android BoF session, which will be a audience directed discussion. It can be a follow-up of the discussions from any of the Android MC topics or a free-form discussion on Android related topics.

On the second day of DebConf24 in Busan, South Korea, Holger Levsen provided a history lesson on the "first 11 years" of the Reproducible Builds project. He has been involved in the project for most of that time and has been a Debian user since the mid-1990s, contributor since 2001, and a Debian member since 2007; "I love Debian". Meanwhile, his aim is to make all free software be reproducible, so that anyone can check that a binary program comes from the source code it purports to.

The Forgejo project has announced that, starting from version 9.0, Forgejo will be released under the GPLv3 license (or a later version). Older versions of the software forge remain MIT-licensed.

A copyleft license makes reusing other copyleft software easier. Recently, we discovered that some of the dependencies we used were incompatible with the license Forgejo was distributed with, and they had to be removed for now. Choosing copyleft licenses enables us to reuse more work, and saves us precious time to focus on improving Forgejo itself.

Security updates have been issued by Fedora (community-mysql, iaito, and radare2), Oracle (python3.12-setuptools and tomcat), Red Hat (krb5 and podman), Slackware (ffmpeg), SUSE (apache2, expat, firefox, webkit2gtk3, and xen), and Ubuntu (imagemagick and libxstream-java).

Version 24.8 of the LibreOffice office suite has been released. Changes include the ability to filter identifying information from exported files, easier creation of cross reference, better control over hyphenation, a number of new spreadsheet functions, accessibility improvements, and more.

On July 30, Al Viro sent a patch set to the linux-fsdevel mailing list with a comprehensive cover letter explaining his recent work on ensuring that the kernel's internal representation of file descriptors are used correctly in the kernel. File descriptors are ubiquitous; many system calls need to handle them. Viro's review identified a few existing bugs, and may prevent more in the future. He also had suggestions for ways to keep uses consistent throughout the kernel.

Matthew Garrett describes the role of the Secure Boot Advanced Targeting mechanism and how it played into the recent Windows upgrade problems.

So why is this suddenly relevant? SBAT was developed collaboratively between the Linux community and Microsoft, and Microsoft chose to push a Windows update that told systems not to trust versions of grub with a security generation below a certain level. This was because those versions of grub had genuine security vulnerabilities that would allow an attacker to compromise the Windows secure boot chain, and we've seen real world examples of malware wanting to do that.
