    Interesting. Though looking at the code, it does still check VM_MAYWRITE, so the mapping needs to be something you could remap as writable.

    Thank you. I was wondering about that.

    Hmm, I read some of the decision, and now I'm not sure what to make of all of it. When I came to the opinion from Jackson, J., I found it extremely compelling. He says this: ... Bu…

    I asked about this when they presented the project at the Linux Plumbers conference. They replied that it's not really intended to be a security boundary, and that you should not l…

    I have no insight into the Asahi project, but the LKML link goes to an email from James Calligeros containing code written by Hector Martin and Sven Peter. The code may have been w…

    That's an email from James Calligeros. All this patch says is that the author is Hector Martin (and Sven Peter). The code could have been written a long time ago.

    Where I'm from, it probably would not be stolen by anyone.

    It never made it into upstream Linux, but there is already a sample implementation that Wedson wrote in 2022: https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux/pull/798

    It won't be different from Tokio. When you pass a future to tokio::spawn, that will also eagerly execute the future right away.

    It's trivial to implement an async runtime in the kernel. The kernel's workqueue is already essentially a runtime.

    I'm quite careful to tightly control the dependencies of Tokio. All dependencies are under control by members of the Tokio team or others that I trust.

    Regarding the review process ... one thing that I find challenging and don't know a good solution to is documentation. I've received many PRs where the change itself is fine, but t…

    It's well known that what is being stabilized today is lacking the Send bounds stuff. In fact, there was a lot of discussion about whether they should completely block this feature…

    If you pay too much in bounties, you risk having your own red-team employees leave so that they can report bugs externally and get paid much more via bounties.

    I'm surprised that CLN-003 made the list even as low severity. It's intended to make reverse engineering of the binary harder, but the code is already freely accessible (and CLN-00…
