Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo spoke at the 2024 Linux Storage, Filesystem, Memory Management, and BPF Summit about his work on Poke-a-hole (pahole), a program that has expanded greatly over the years, but which was relevant to the BPF track because it produces BPF Type Format (BTF) information from DWARF debugging information. He covered some small changes to the program, and then went into detail about the new support for data-type profiling. His slides include several examples.

When a new processor is released, how long would you expect it to take before your favorite operating system adds support for it?

In the case of OpenBSD/arm64, the time lag can occasionally be measured in days if not hours.

In a recent message to tech@, Patrick Wildt (patrick@) premiered the patch to add support for the Qualcomm Snapdragon Elite X processor the day after it was officially released.

Philip Hazel was 51 when he began the Exim message transfer agent (MTA) project in 1995, which led to the Perl-Compatible Regular Expressions (PCRE) project in 1998. At 80, he's maintained PCRE, and its successor PCRE2, for more than 27 years. For those doing the math, that's a year longer than LWN has been in publication. Exim maintenance was handed off around the time of his retirement in 2007. Now, he is ready to hand off PCRE2 as well, if a successor can be found.

Version 1.11.0 of Libgcrypt, a general-purpose library of cryptographic building blocks, has been released by the GnuPG project:

This release starts a new stable branch of Libgcrypt with full API and ABI compatibility to the 1.10 series. Over the last years Jussi Kivilinna put again a lot of work into speeding up the algorithms for many commonly used CPUs.

Andrii Nakryiko led a session at the 2024 Linux Storage, Filesystem, Memory Management, and BPF Summit giving a look into the APIs for capturing stack traces using BPF, and how the APIs could be made more useful. BPF programs can capture the current stack trace of a running process, including the portion in the kernel during execution of a system call, which can be useful for diagnosing performance problems, among other things. But there are substantial problems with the existing API.

It has been four months since Greg Kroah-Hartman and MITRE announced that the Linux kernel project had become its own CVE Numbering Authority (CNA). Since then, the Linux CNA Team has developed workflows and mechanisms to help manage the various tasks associated with this challenge. There does however, appear to be a lack of understanding among community members of the processes and rules the team have been working within. The principal aim of this article, written by a member of the Linux kernel CNA team, is to clarify how the team works and how kernel CVE numbers are assigned.
