Kernel livepatching, beer, squash

After the first session about introducing there will be a new session about tools to help you create livepatches. I'll be presenting with @joe-lawrence so stay tuned!

After almost one year I finally published a new post on my personal blog, this time to talking about the work we at SUSE have done to the kernel livepatch selftests.

The post details the process of moving code from lib/livepatch to livepatch selftests, the problems found in the process, and sheds some light on Kbuild recursive Makefile calls.

Enjoy!

Stick the following in your ~/.gitconfig to make `git branch` sort by most recently committed (thanks to @wingo for this one!):

[branch]
sort = -committerdate

Interesting post from @vegard about backdooring linux kernel in a sneaky way by abusing the build process, and about potential mitigations. I do agree that that the fundamental issues are quite tricky to solve. https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2024/04/17/3

Linux is now a CNA: http://www.kroah.com/log/blog/2024/02/13/linux-is-a-cna/

This has taken a long time, I'd like to thank all the groups that helped, and especially the CVE group themselves. Our application was a bit different than other groups, but they understood that this is important for security overall.

Squash, Coding, & Robotics Camp?! I wonder if I could have claimed a continuing education expense with the employer 😁

Do we still say WYSIWYG, or am I just paranoid I'll date myself using it around the kids?

From my first programming book, Learning Commodore 64 BASIC. More like 34 years later and I still have fun throwing my (or Kilroy's) name up on the screen.

@rostedt yes, it feels like a multi decade Linux desktop problem, doesn't it?

@nathanchance would be surprising if they had the new version, given it was apparently just released?

Hmm, GitLab offers some interesting emoji suggestions to spice up a merge request. Can it sort by controversial 🔥 ?
