@tusooa Heh, you're trying to convince a "Russian identified person" in one of the senior positions in the Linux Foundation that the Linux Foundation is being unfair towards "Russian identified people." It's pretty hilarious.

I'm not a lawyer and I don't speak for the LF, so I won't give you any kind of "official comment." But here's my view of it.

The people removed from maintainer positions were identified as employed by companies on the US and EU sanctions list. These companies are directly involved in the Russian military complex and therefore are directly complicit in war crimes being committed daily in Ukraine. If these maintainers want to think that they are "just techies helping improve the Linux kernel," or that "they are outside of politics," then they are fucking wrong. If they work for companies that develop weaponry or logistics used by the Russian military, they are complicit in Russia's war crimes, and I hold them responsible at a very personal level -- and that's my official comment on the situation.

@s31bz well, I will just say this: It's entirely distros's fault! They are slow when it comes to solving problems that switching to arm64 poses now that it is coming more and more to laptops (for example, the dtb loading). OTOH, if you are a bit handy with distros like alarm, you will be able to daily drive already some of these x1e laptops. I already daily drive the T14s. Also have a hacked-up debian installer for it if anyone is interested. As long as the kernel supports your model, you should have no trouble working around the distro support. It is just a bit more hands-on.

@archlinux any plans of merging alarm now that there are actual laptops that can run it properly?

The Linux Plumbers Conference is just in three days and I am looking forward to it. I see plenty of interesting topics, so the conference looks promising. If Devicetree is something of interest for you, please come visit "Devicetree Birds of Feather" session on Friday morning:
https://lpc.events/event/18/contributions/1783/

P.S. If you want to grab a beer or chat, find me in the halls or get in touch via email/fedi. I won't be attending OSSE, though. Only Plumbers.

Preparing speeches for conferences was always rather difficult for me. Went slow, somehow painful. But now I have wonderful data, which I am going to present, and it is just pleasure to write the slides slowly reaching the conclusion I want to share!

Is DT schema validation of DTS boards helpful or not? Get ready to find it out during my talk on EOSS 2024 conference in April:

2024 is definitely going to be the year of Linux on arm-based laptops
(chromebooks don't count)

@monsieuricon one more thing. When one wants to prepare 2 patchsets that depend on each other, b4 prep is not allowed for the second patchset, as it complains that the first branch is already a b4 prep branch (I guess it sees the b4 commit from the first patchset being there). The only workaround I found is to do b4 prep with -next first, then rebase on top of first branch and then do b4 prep for the second patchset.

@monsieuricon while at it, where did "b4 prep --cleanup" dissapear? It is still in the documentation though.

L.E. version 0.12.4 definitely doesn't have it.

FYI, Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite (X1E80100) now boots to shell with today's -next.

More support is already sent on the list for review:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/?q=X1E80100

And here is a public branch with all support currently available on top of -next:
