Android dlouhá léta bojkotoval podporu DHCPv6, aby zabránil přidělování jednotlivých adres koncovému zařízení. Připravuje se řešení, ale od správců sítí bude vyžadovat úpravy nastavení i adresních plánů.

Zaměříme se na popis složených datových typů a kontejnerů. Mezi základní typy kontejnerů patří vektory, staticky alokovaná pole, dynamicky alokovaná pole a můžeme sem zařadit i řezy.

With last week's official release of ROCm 7.0 failing to mention the AMD Ryzen AI Max "Strix Halo" SoCs on the supported GPU list, a number of Phoronix readers and from elsewhere were inquiring whether or not Strix Halo works with the new ROCm release. Various AMD folks have mentioned Strix Halo with ROCm, so I decided to run some benchmarks for myself of ROCm 7.0 on Ubuntu Linux with the AMD Ryzen AI Max 395 with Radeon 8060S Graphics on the Framework Desktop.

Prostředí KDE Plasma 6 může běžet na FreeBSD pomocí relace Wayland. Projekt GNOME dočasně obnovuje podporu X11. Ve verzích openSUSE, které používají novější jádro nebude podporován souborový systém BCacheFS.

Not to be confused with AMD's Platform Security Processor (PSP), but Google's PSP Security Protocol (PSP) for encryption in-transit for TCP network connections is now ready for the mainline kernel. This initial PSP encryption support for network connections is set to arrive with the upcoming Linux 6.18 kernel...

Code was open-sourced this week and posted to the Linux kernel mailing list as a "request for comments" (RFC) for a multi-kernel architecture. This proposal could allow for multiple independent kernel instances to co-exist on a single physical machine. Each kernel could run on dedicated CPU Cores while sharing underlying hardware resources. This could also allow for some complex use-cases such as real-time (RT) kernels running on select CPU cores...

The past few years Google engineers have been reimplementing Android's Binder driver in the Rust programming language. Binder is a critical part of Android for inter-process communication (IPC) and now with Linux 6.18 it looks like the Rust rewrite will be upstreamed...

While years ago it was a annual ritual and closest thing to a vacation around here (even though the daily original content persisted), the Phoronix pilgrimage/meet-up at Oktoberfest in Munich sadly remains on hiatus. Web publishing operations remain difficult given the state of the industry and rampant ad-block use make even daily operations tight. But for those wishing to show their support for Phoronix during this autumn/fest period, there is the annual Phoronix Premium sale special for those wishing to help the site at a discounted rate to enjoy ad-free viewing, multi-page articles on a single page, native dark mode, and other benefits...
