The thing that I hate in #Codeberg: no official merch to buy.

Any ideas how do I bind :nohlsearch in Zed's vim mode to a key?

I'd like to bind it exactly to CTRL+L, just like in my .vimrc for the sake of ubiquitous text editing experience:

https://codeberg.org/jarkko/skeleton/src/branch/main/.vimrc

#zed #vim #text #editor

Sometimes I feel that I'd like migrate my certificate key some day from the current RSA-4096 to ED-25519.

Can I bless the trust to the new certificate key or do I actually have to fucking meet F2F other kernel maintainers? ;-)

#linux #kernel #pgp

In addition to linux-media, I also subscribed to rust-for-linux for the sake of

1. Learning
2. Tested-by (aka "show me the payload")

Not for nuking Rust per se...

#linux #kernel #rust

Right. fRUSTration. How I never grabbed that albeit I'm a sucker for word plays ;-)

#rust #rustlang

Is CONFIG_VIDEO_V4L1_COMPAT something that I should look forward on using for new V4L2 drivers?

#linux #kernel #media #video

Finally found a Zed theme that I love :-) #zed #editor

The new URL for video-loop.ko:

https://codeberg.org/jarkko/linux-video-loop

Smoke test:

https://codeberg.org/jarkko/video-loop-test

#linux #kernel #media #video #loopback

Two small steps forward with the video loopback driver:

1. Internally use kref + release life-cycle. This is a prequel for anonymous inode.
2. Delete timeout and timeout_image attributes. In the anonymous inode based the user space driver for /dev/videoX is responsible for this.
3. Rename the device as /dev/video_loop.
4. Subscribed to linux-media@vger.kernel.org, as it is always good to start follow the discussion on other patch sets some time before your sending a feature patch set. For instance, some useful gray information might stick to you by accident…

#linux #kernel #media

This is weird:

When the comedy writes itself: "Maintainer opinions on Rust-for-Linux"

After years of hard work, countless reviews, and tons of community testing, we're happy to share that dynamic buffering has landed in Mutter for GNOME 48!

This improves the smoothness of GNOME across a wide range of hardware and software setups.

Thanks to everyone involved in this collaboration! Special thanks to author Daniel van Vugt from Canonical and reviewers Jonas Ådahl and Michel Dänzer from Red Hat.

Well well, look what the cat dragged in

While I don't know if is the first time this has happened, it's good to acknowledge this given all the crazy, odd, and incorrect press about Rust in Linux these days.

A new in-kernel api just landed in linux-next from my tree and should hopefully show up in 6.14 to make some kinds of drivers easier to write, that has a rust binding added at the exact same time:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/2025021023-sandstorm-precise-9f5d@gregkh/

Many thanks to Lyude and Danilo and many other Rust kernel developers for the help in creating the binding and make the C side work well for both Rust and C code at the same time. The end result here for any C developer alone, is much better off for all of their help.

I'll be working at https://opinsys.com/contact/ starting from next month.

Opinsys creates a combined hardware and teaching platform based on open source, and provides this service for schools in Finland, Germany and Switzerland :-)

This also means that I'm full on back in kernel too for the first time in over two years, as the work will involve e.g. taking advantage of the modern security features of the Linux kernel.

I.e. my work time will also contain my LKML time ;-)

I'm quite excited as what could be a better job than help kids do better at school, or have better environment for enabling that!
