Linux 6.14 Working To Make It Less Painful Debugging Early Boot Issues
22 January 2025 - Kexec And Other Early Boot Headaches
Linux kernel developers are working to make it easier to debug early boot issues such as Kexec failures as currently dealing with such situations can be a frustrating and time consuming headache for figuring out the problems prior to the kernel being fully brought online.

Linux's KUnit Will Now Default To Using Hardware Acceleration For Faster Testing
22 January 2025 - Kernel Unit Testing
Surprisingly a change not made years ago, the Linux Kernel Unit Testing "KUnit" framework with the Linux 6.14 kernel is set to use hardware acceleration by default for faster testing where available.

Faster AES-GCM & AES-XTS Crypto Performance For AMD CPUs With Linux 6.14
23 January 2025 - Linux 6.14 Crypto
The crypto subsystem updates were sent out today for the Linux 6.14 kernel. Notable this time are new x86_64-specific optimizations for the AES-GCM and AES-XTS algorithms. Benefiting the most from these new x86_64 optimizations are recent AMD processors.

Linux 6.14 Power Management: "Dominated By AMD P-State Driver Changes"
23 January 2025 - Power Management Updates
All of the power management feature updates for the in-development Linux 6.14 kernel were sent out earlier this week and subsequently merged. As we've been seeing with recent Linux kernel releases, AMD continues investing a lot into their AMD P-State CPU frequency scaling driver for better power efficiency on Ryzen processors and since the prior kernel also now being used with the new 5th Gen AMD EPYC server processors too.

Linux 6.14 Adds Support For Blaize BLZP1600, SpacemiT K1 & Snapdragon 8 Elite SoCs
24 January 2025 - Linux 6.14 SoCs
The four SoC pull requests were sent out today for the ongoing Linux 6.14 merge window. These pull requests are principally about various ARM SoC and platform hardware additions/changes but also an increasing number of RISC-V SoC activity too.

Much Faster Suspend & Resume For Some Systems With Linux 6.14
25 January 2025 - Linux 6.14 ACPI
Alongside the power management and thermal driver updates this week for the ongoing Linux 6.14 kernel cycle were also the ACPI updates. The ACPI pull request was worth calling out on its own thanks to a change that will allow for faster suspend and resume cycles on some systems with this new kernel.

Linux Patches Allow Sharing PTEs Between Processes - Can Mean Significant RAM Savings
26 January 2025 - Sharing PTEs Between Processes
A set of patches being worked on by Oracle engineers allow for optionally sharing page table entries (PTEs) between processes. For some workloads this can equate to very significant memory savings.

Linux 6.14 To Switch From SHA1 To SHA512 For Module Signing By Default
26 January 2025 - SHA512 Module Signing
While many Linux distribution vendor kernels are already using SHA-512 for signing modules by default rather than the default SHA-1, the upstream Linux 6.14 kernel is also now switching the default over to using SHA-512 for better security.
