Linux Kernel 6.11 | Drama and 15X Part 2

[@TheDesertBlizzard]

All these lines of code! Coming in by the millions and millions! Thanks for the laugh.

[@Maple-Circuit]

It took me a good 15min to come back from that comment, the whole comment is pure gold

[@montyoso]

You are really good at explaining kernel updates. I hope you hang around for a long time.

[@Maple-Circuit]

Thanks!

[@Wraient]

is that a warning?

[@ZekeFast]

Thanks you for that series of videos! I particularly like your 6.10 and 6.11 part 1 videos because you explained all the abbreviation and kernel subsystems, so mere mortals (though still familiar with system programming a bit) people can understand the changes and kernel slang. In 6.11 part 2 it feels like you try to cover all the changes for the cost of explanation. It is still good video, but I would like to point that the value (for me) of your videos in exactly these explanations and not in the news itself. And relly looking forward for your next videos to know a bit more about kernel and modern system programming! Thank you!

[@ZekeFast]

Okay, It looks like lack of explanation and amount of abbreviations was related to VM section. Once video get to Memory section you are back on track with explanations! :)

[@Maple-Circuit]

You are right! I really tried to fit everything that happened on this release. Next time, I'll probably cut some of it out so we can get more explaining, which is really the best part of the videos (;

[@ZekeFast]

@@Maple-Circuit Thank you again for the videos I discovered them recently and watched all kernel videos on a single breath!

[@hamzarashid7579]

I would love to see more low-level system concepts videos related to Linux.

[@KangJangkrik]

This guy would be big as Phonorix in the future, keep it up man 👍

[@Maple-Circuit]

Thx!

[@MultiMunding]

Great video as usual

[@epocfeal]

Great videos I hope to see more like this!

[@Maple-Circuit]

Thanks! Will do!

[@eajaykumar]

am waiting for part 2 , you will become good youtuber in future

[@mela_nova]

great! thx

[@killedinit]

Make more videos like this❤

[@TjMastery]

ROG ALLY support nice!

[@Altirix_]

6:40 my guess is it was never an issue due to how crts worked. tho it did take a few decades for VRR to be a common feature. maybe more so for power efficiency

[@Maple-Circuit]

Just think of the power loss... omg

[@meme-zf7ew]

6.12 release candidate released

[@gautam2599]

Great video! Can you make a video about eBPF?

[@Maple-Circuit]

Good idea!

[@rch5395]

What is a navy gpu? Also funny how the iris xe driver is worse than the i915 driver, but they are making an xe2 driver before the previous one is even working well.

[@Maple-Circuit]

I wrote Navy LOL, I meant Navi. ex: www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/amd-navi-22.g951

[@yorailevi6747]

Other than reading the kernel source code and hearing random people rephrase how the kernel work is there an "authoritative" source on what the kernel does and how? for example this is the first time i hear about "slab"

[@Maple-Circuit]

My biggest source outside of phoronix & LWN is the linux documentation kernel.org/doc/html/latest If you want to understand how something work, its gold. Slab is also the most complicated thing to research ever as it has 3 implementation with similar name, thank God they kill the other 2 in recent kernel...

[@solimm4sks510]

there are kernel docs

[@VEKTOR_87]

1:26 i faced this bug trust me it was horrible reverted back to 6.10.3 just to fix this , not a problem in browser but hell in video games

[@fooboomoo]

6.11 broke suspend/wake on both my laptop and desktop

[@SickHedgehog777]

that sound at the beginning sounds like a turd dropping in water bro

[@Maple-Circuit]

Lol never thought of it that way but... true XD I'm going to have to change that now!

[@SickHedgehog777]

@@Maple-Circuit sorry bout that x)

[@RotaryJunkie]

Oh, I can stop using my RX 580 after the next kernel patch? Yay! ... doesn't necessarily explain why I could replicate the problem in Windows too, but eh whatever.

[@Maple-Circuit]

AMD GPU having driver issues? nnnooo wayyy XD

[@RotaryJunkie]

@@Maple-Circuit I know right? Though to be fair the only GPUs I've ever had outright fail were nVidia ones... And I've been running ATi/AMD ever since.

goddammit! i hate laptops!
