Linux 6.15 Graphics Drivers: NOVA Core, Apple Touch Bar, Lots For AMD + Intel GPUs
28 March 2025 - Linux 6.15 DRM

The big pull request was sent out today of the numerous Direct Rendering Manager (DRM) updates for the in-development Linux 6.15 kernel. There are new drivers, a lot as usual for the AMD Radeon and Intel kernel graphics drivers, and a lot of other changes throughout for advancing these open-source kernel graphics/display drivers.

Torvalds Frustrated Over "Disgusting" Testing "Turd" DRM Code Landing In Linux 6.15
28 March 2025 - hdrtest

The big set of open-source graphics driver updates for Linux 6.15 have been merged but Linux creator Linus Torvalds isn't particularly happy with the pull request. In particular, he's unhappy with some new "hdrtest" testing code being built as part of full kernel builds and the "turds" it leaves behind and this code "needs to die" at least from the perspective of non-DRM driver developers.

HyperOS2的dmesg（软链接指向toybox）有点问题，在执行dmesg -w命令时，打印到终端的内核日志总是断断续续的。
虽然busybox也有dmesg，但不支持-w参数。
好在vendor分区下还有一个老版本的toybox：/vendor/bin/toybox_vendor，它的dmesg用起来是没有问题的。
简单地修复它：

cd /data/adb/modules/<mod id>
mkdir -p ./system/bin
cd ./system/bin
ln -s /vendor/bin/toybox_vendor ./dmesg

IO_uring Network Zero-Copy Receive Lands In Linux 6.15
30 March 2025 - IO_uring Network Zero-Copy Rx

IO_uring continues maturing while being one of the greatest innovations within the Linux kernel in the past number of years. With Linux 6.15, IO_uring is getting even more interesting with introducing network zero-copy receive support. With this new code a 200G link could be saturated off a single CPU core in a recent demonstration.
