Linux Patch Posted For Syncing The Kernel Code With Zstd 1.5.7
13 March 2025 - Zstd 1.5.7 For The Linux Kernel
The Zstandard (Zstd) compression code sadly hasn't been regularly synced with the latest upstream Linux kernel sources but a patch posted this evening goes ahead and syncs the in-kernel Zstd code against the Zstd 1.5.7 state.

IGT GPU Tools 2.0 Released For Helping To Develop DRM Drivers
14 March 2025 - IGT GPU Tools 2.0
IGT GPU Tools began as a set of tools by Intel for working on their Linux Direct Rendering Manager (DRM) kernel driver but with time has been broadened by the open-source community to support non-Intel drivers/hardware. IGT GPU Tools 2.0 was released on Thursday with new enhancements for these tests and other tools incorporated into the project.

Mediatek DRM Driver Adding MT8365 "Genio 350" Support In Linux 6.15
14 March 2025 - Mediatek MT8365
On top of the big features for the Intel graphics driver code and new AMD hardware support coming for Linux 6.15 along with the initial NOVA driver stub, the smaller Direct Rendering Manager (DRM) drivers have also been lining up their changes for this next kernel version. With the Mediatek DRM driver for Linux 6.15 it's set to add MT8365 SoC support, perhaps better known as the Genio 350.

Linux Kernel's Zstd Code Gets A Co-Maintainer
18 March 2025 - Zstd Co-Maintainer
Hopefully leading to more timely updates to the Zstd compression code within the Linux kernel is a decision to add on a co-maintainer of the in-kernel Zstandard code.

Linux Security Hardening Cache Randomization Was Inadvertently Using The Same Seed
21 March 2025 - slab Fix For Linux 6.15
Ahead of the upcoming Linux 6.15 kernel cycle a few early pull requests have already been sent in to Linus Torvalds in advance of the anticipated v6.14 release on Sunday. Among those early changes for Linux 6.15 are the SLAB allocator updates that include a fix for cache randomization with kvmalloc inadvertently being inadequate due to accidentally using the same randomization seed.
