    There was an unfortunate error while changing the kernel.org primary/secondary mirroring infrastructure, which resulted in the /pub tree suddenly becoming empty. No data was lost, just public mirror copies. Everything is now being restored, but deletes are fast and restores are slow, so thank you for your patience! EDITED: You can follow the official incident here: https://status.linuxfoundation.org/incidents/3y1k8b4ky71t

    EU traffic to lore.kernel.org is now served by two OVH-hosted nodes, one in Strasbourg, another in Warsaw. Huge thanks to OVH for their support!

    Here&amp;#39;s a prototype of &amp;quot;b4 review&amp;quot; with a nicer textual ui. What do you think? https://asciinema.org/a/776900

    Whoever called it &amp;quot;ipv8&amp;quot; missed a golden opportunity to call it &amp;quot;ipv6-7&amp;quot;.

    This post on post-quantum cryptography sent to the gnupg-users list is both amusing and insightful: https://lists.gnupg.org/pipermail/gnupg-users/2026-April/068253.html

    TLDR: use korgalore to bypass mailing list delivery problems If you&amp;#39;re a Gmail or Outlook user and you&amp;#39;re subscribed to high-volume mailing lists, you&amp;#39;re probably routinely missing mail. Korgalore is a tool that monitors mailing lists via lore.kernel.org and can import mail directly into your inbox so you don&amp;#39;t miss any of it. You can also couple korgalore with lei for powerful filtering features that can reduce the firehose to what you&amp;#39;d actually find us...

    b4 review getting started documentation, with screencasts: https://b4.docs.kernel.org/en/latest/reviewer/getting-started.html Still requires unreleased master version -- I&amp;#39;m hoping for some initial tests before I release 0.15.

    b4 review landed in b4 master. I&amp;#39;ll post a bunch of stuff tomorrow announcing it, but if you want to give it an early whirl, go ahead. The docs are a bit scant, but they should get you started. You&amp;#39;ll need python textual framework. To start, run &amp;quot;b4 review enroll&amp;quot; in a repo where you&amp;#39;ll be reviewing code. Then run &amp;quot;b4 review tui&amp;quot;. After that, you can run &amp;quot;b4 review track &amp;lt;msgid&amp;gt;&amp;quot; to pull in a series to r...

    Congrats to Julia Lawall for making it to the LF Technical Advisory Board! https://lore.kernel.org/ksummit/20251221125206.99296-1-ojeda@kernel.org/

    &amp;quot;b4 bugs tui&amp;quot; landed in master, but I&amp;#39;m out of time today to write an announcement. Just some very basic scant details here: https://b4.docs.kernel.org/en/latest/maintainer/bugs.html More tomorrow, along with a proposal how I hope this will help replace bugzilla and augment &amp;quot;just send an email&amp;quot;.

    https://asciinema.org/a/890396 b4 bugs tui demo -- it&amp;#39;s still an early prototype, but it&amp;#39;s showing some of the UI for importing a bug from lore, adding a comment, replying to the reporter.

    b4 0.15.0 is out. Lots of new features in this one, including the whole new &amp;quot;b4 review&amp;quot; workflow. https://b4.docs.kernel.org/en/latest/releases.html#v0-15

    &amp;quot;b4 review&amp;quot; has grown by leaps and bounds. You should try it out if you haven&amp;#39;t yet and give me feedback before I ship it!

    Gemini, please convert this response into a politely worded email: Hi: Your vulnerability report is stupid. You have no idea what you&amp;#39;re talking about, or you&amp;#39;re hoping that nobody actually checks your findings. Unfortunately for me, I did check your findings and I will never get these 20 minutes of my life back. Everyone is dumber as a result of your report. Please do not contact us again.

    mirrors.kernel.org is down because it threw 2 disks in a RAID-6 array and then ground itself to a halt. I&amp;#39;m trying to resuscitate it. Please use mirrors.edge.kernel.org (it&amp;#39;s pointing at our only remaining server that is now up, in Amsterdam). We need more redundancy for these systems. After exiting Equinix, we are reduced to just 2 nodes (and hence, we&amp;#39;re now down to 1 until I rebuild the RAID array on the one that&amp;#39;s currently offline). If you can donate us a s...
