Maintaining DAMON (https://damonitor.github.io). All opinions are my own.
Edited 8 months ago
DAMO v2.3.0[1] is out. An important change on this version is the support of memory footprint visualization[2]. All DAMO features including this, which are added since last OSSummit Europe will be demonstrated in this week's OSSummit NA on Wednesday[3].

I sometimes do git log --author to know developers including myself for just fun, retrospects, or interviews. It was not easy to get the whole picture with my poor brain. Hence I wrote a script: https://github.com/sjp38/lazybox/blob/master/git_helpers/profile_author.py

E.g.,

$ ./profile_author.py "SeongJae Park" --branch linus/master --repo ~/linux --max_files 10

@mpdesouza @jarkko Now 'hkml list' supports it[1]. It's in an experimental support level, and may need more optimization, though.

Hackermail v1.0.3 is out. The major change in this version is the support of public-inbox search queries[1]. It is in an experimental level, and may need more optimization, though.

@mpdesouza @jarkko Hackermail doesn't support lei's sophisticated search syntax and performance, though.

Recently I was looking for a way to do that, and made a hacky idea. However, I'm not sure if that will really be needed by many users and hence taking time for prioritization.

Please feel free to uploading GitHub issue or PR if you need it!

I made a tool to help view kernel configuration values and compare them across many Linux distributions. Here's a blog post introducing it:
https://blogs.oracle.com/linux/post/explore-linux-kernel-kconfigs

Or, you can skip right to the tool here:
https://oracle.github.io/kconfigs/

DAMON news letter for 2024-Q1 is posted: https://lore.kernel.org/damon/20240402191224.92305-1-sj@kernel.org/

"""
To recap, the long-awaited DAMOS auto-tuning feature has merged. More people
from the academy and the industry explored and contributed on DAMON. DAMON
user-space tool got more useful features. We will have yet another DAMON
presentation and discussion at OSSummit NA and LSF/MM/BPF.

DAMO v2.2.8 is out. This version supports[1] recording memory footprint of monitoring target processes together with their access pattern. Users could know when how much memory is allocated and really accessed. Such visualization is one of the future works, though.

Just pushed hackermail v1.0.2[1]. The major change in this version is the support of drafts. Users can tag/save, remote-synchronize, and continue writing/sending drafts.

I wanted to know how many CVEs were assigned to DAMON, and then I wanted to know the numbers for other subsystems as well. So I wrote a script: https://github.com/sjp38/lazybox/blob/master/cve_stat/cves_per_file.py

Just tagged and pushed hackermail v1.0.1[1]. The most important change in this version would be the support of remote synchronization[2].

@spmatich IIRC, the Linux CNA team mentioned they will not give CVSS to new CVEs. I guess that's the reason. I don't find the link, though.

@Issa I didn't scan any kernel. Instead, I scanned others' kernel scan results :) You could use the source of the script for detail.

I just renewed my subscription to @LWN

The best content about bleeding-edge Linux kernel development! 🐧 🙌

You should really consider subscribing if you haven't done it yet. 🙂

@authentic_sammj I have no opinion but only a humble script :)

@Issa For more context, I believe this great LWN article could be very helpful: https://lwn.net/Articles/961978/

@Issa I cannot confirm since my script may have bugs ;) What the script argues is that about 450 (exact number is 440) security bugs for upstream-supporting Linux kernels are identified and got their official identifiers (CVE) within last 30 days.

I wanted to know simple daily Linux kernel CVE statistics just for fun, so wrote a script[1] and plotted the output.

$ ./vulns_stat.sh ./vulns/ 30 | ../gnuplot/plot.py --data_fmt table --type labeled-lines --xtics_rotate -90 cve_stat_30_days.png

Oops, I should have read replies to Thorsten's post before writing mine...
