📰 AI Helped Uncover A "50-80x Improvement" For Linux's IO_uring
Linux block maintainer and IO_uring lead developer Jens Axboe recently was debugging some slowdowns in the AHCI/SCSI code with IO_uring usage. When turning to Claude AI to help in sorting through the issue, patches were devised that can deliver up to a "literally yield a 50-80x improvement on the io_uring side for idle systems."

Agama 19 released
Agama 安装程序发布第 19 版,适用于 openSUSE 和 SUSE。此版本在架构设计、Web 界面组织等方面进行了重大变更。
开发团队一直希望 Agama 遵循一种架构模式,即安装程序的核心可以通过一个一致且简单的编程接口(API)来控制。在此模式下,基于 Web 的用户界面、命令行工具和无人值守安装都将构建在这个通用 API 之上。
然而,Agama 的早期版本存在许多问题,使其无法定义一个符合质量标准的 API,以作为构建一个简单而全面的安装程序的坚实基础。Agama 19 版本进行了一次相当重大的架构重构,旨在摒弃所有遗留问题,并定义出能够成为未来任何开发基石的机制。
LWN 上次关注 Agama 是在 2025 年 9 月。

📰 Fedora 44 will automatically make your Windows games run faster, no tweaks required
Don't get me wrong; gaming on Linux has come a long way in the last few years. A decade ago, getting any game running on Linux that wasn't designed natively for it was a massive headache at best and impossible at worst. Now, thanks to the efforts from several sources, such as Valve with Proton, it seems like 2026 may be the year of gaming on Linux after all.

[$] An API for handling arithmetic overflow
Kees Cook 提交了一套补丁,旨在消除内核中无声、无意的整数溢出风险。Linus Torvalds 对此方案并不满意,引发了关于“安全”整数运算含义及处理整数溢出的 API 设计的详细讨论。最终,开发者们就一个不同的 API 达成共识,该 API 应能大大简化内核中溢出错误的处理。
