Ard Biesheuvel's patch series that creates "[…] crypto library abstractions that are needed to
incorporate #WireGuard into the mainline kernel […]" is now in #linux-next and thus slated for inclusion in #kernel 5.5. https://t.co/wNLCSNXPbx pic.twitter.com/0O5eLIu4X6

If anyone wants to follow along with booting a Clang-built CFI-enabled x86 kernel, I've written up the instructions to build the latest LLVM and @samitolvanen's LTO/CFI/SCS tree. Enjoy! https://t.co/WwBrVvz09x

It's amusing (and depressing) how many people love to declare that "only code matters" when it's actually human interaction that gets things done

I've released man-pages-5.04. Approx 80 commits, and around 30 pages updated. Thanks to the 15 people who contributed! https://t.co/MMxGpP0zFj

I wrote my first tracing tool with eBPF which is a sort of "ftrace for networking people". Please check this out if you like. Feedbacks are very welcome :) #ebpfhttps://t.co/0bqW1ji79G

https://t.co/G2P1KVCy8T One of the most innovative talk (by @_AlexGraf) I saw in KVM. Propose to put VMM device emulation code *in guest* BIOS SMM by exposing PV interface to vSMM that allows intercept PIO & MMIO by vCPU. Significantly reduce attack surface and simplifies host.

If you're going to watch one talk this week, you should definitely watch this talk on object-oriented programming techniques in C. It has code examples from the Linux Kernel/Git codebase and very well explained cool Maths theorem references. 😍https://t.co/RcIFNft79g
