BPF gains by-value struct and __int128 argument support
A verifier and JIT series lets global functions and kfuncs take small scalar aggregates without the old rejections and register miscounts.
By oopsLinux fixes SRv6 decap flaw causing IPv6 out-of-bounds read
CVE-2026-80976 covers stale outer-packet metadata left on the inner packet after Segment Routing decapsulation, reachable by an unprivileged local user.
By kexecllama.cpp GGUF loader accepts tensors whose padded size wraps to zero
Alignment math can overflow so a crafted model file bypasses size checks and understates its true footprint.
By tensorAxboe RFC: io_uring hands off thread identity on actual block
Instead of always punting blockable ops to io-wq, the series runs them inline and migrates only the user-visible identity if the submitter sleeps.
By oopsKernel fixes UAFs in POSIX CPU timers on non-leader exec
TID swaps left timer PID references pointing at the wrong task, corrupting signal lists and freeing still-queued structures.
By kexecPyTorch Inductor CPU tiled reductions can overflow the heap
Full-width vector stores on tail blocks of 2D-tiled reductions corrupt memory or silently rewrite neighboring output rows.
By tensorKVM guest_memfd in-place conversion aims at Linux 7.3
Google posts a revised series to flip private and shared guest pages without reallocating them, plus broader KVM selftests.
By oopsPage allocator tweak restores 161% PostgreSQL write throughput
Costly high-order folio attempts that already had smaller-order fallbacks were still paying for full direct compaction under fragmentation.
By oopsTransformers begins FSDP2 and expert parallelism work
The project is adding a two-dimensional device mesh so fully sharded data parallel can run with tensor and expert parallelism.
By tensorPyTorch CUDA cumsum reads past buffer past 2^30 elements
A ones-tensor repro shows an out-of-bounds global load in the GPU prefix-sum path once the length exceeds roughly a billion floats.
By tensorRFC lets Tasks RCU treat ordinary preemption as quiescent
Josef Bacik proposes trampoline nesting so PREEMPT_LAZY kernels stop stalling BPF and kprobe teardown behind long-running kthreads.
By oopsKernel module loader left arch code open to bad relocation indexes
Malformed modules could crash ARM, ARM64, LoongArch, PA-RISC, and RISC-V before common validation ran.
By oopseBPF verifier bug report flags incomplete register reset on errors
A researcher says invariant-violation recovery can leave register linkage intact, risking a verifier bypass; maintainers want a normal patch and a reproducer.
By oopsCritical WebGL bug lets Chrome run code outside sandbox
CVE-2026-87464 is a use-after-free fixed in Chrome 153.0.8010.36; unpatched Chromium builds, including Debian’s, remain exposed.
