Q1. Why does Glow Kernel only support the original KernelSU and MKSU?
A1: I can't satisfy everyone, I don't even use KernelSU at all, I still use Magisk. But since Glow Kernel is a standard GKI, you can still install any other unofficial version of KernelSU you like through LKM. If you are asked to select the KMI version during installation, select android12-5.10.

Q2. Why did you abandon support for MIUI14 in Glow Kernel v4.0 and later versions?
A2: The latest Glow Kernel has replaced almost all kernel modules with those compiled from source code, but you know we still need to use some precompiled kernel modules from Xiaomi. In HyperOS, making open source kernel modules compatible with Xiaomi's precompiled kernel modules is enough to give me a headache, and if it is the older MIUI14, it will only give me more headaches. There are very few users who are still using MIUI14. Even if I have a marble dedicated to testing, I don't want to risk losing the baseband by downgrading the ROM and firmware to test the compatibility of Glow Kernel on MIUI14.

Q3. Why are the dtb and dtbo included in Glow Kernel not open source?
A3: The dtb and dtbo included in Glow Kernel are extracted from the latest official HyperOS rom and slightly modified. If you want to know what modifications I made, please read: https://github.com/Pzqqt/AnyKernel3/blob/Marble-Melt/modify_dtb_and_dtboimg.sh
As for why it is not open source, there are several reasons:
1. Qualcomm itself has not open sourced waipio's devicetree at clo, and from the "leaked" waipio devicetree source code of some manufacturers, these devicetree source codes are not subject to the GPL 2.0 of Linux Kernel (there is no relevant statement in the file header). Therefore, first of all, Glow Kernel's behavior of not open dtb and dtbo does not violate GPL 2.0; secondly, rather than condemning me, we should condemn Qualcomm, right?
2. Decompiling and recompiling dtb and dtbo files is as simple as 1+1=2, and the decompiled source code files are completely readable and editable. If you have doubts about the security of Glow Kernel's dtb and dtbo, you are welcome to review and give me feedback.

Q4. Why does Glow Kernel still include some of Xiaomi's precompiled kernel modules?
A4: I had to do this to be compatible with HyperOS rom.

Q5. Glow Kernel includes Xiaomi precompiled kernel modules that are not open source. This behavior violates the GPL and I want to condemn you.
A5: Please go to Asshole, not me.

Linux's Current & Future Rust Graphics Drivers Getting Their Own Development Tree
2 September 2025 - drm/rust/kernel.git

To help in accelerating the development of kernel graphics drivers and any other NPU/accelerator drivers written in the Rust programming language, the Direct Rendering Manager (DRM) subsystem is creating its own DRM-Rust development tree for drivers and associated Rust infrastructure.

Linux Scheduler Adapted For A Latency Win & Avoiding An RT Deadlock
3 September 2025 - Defer Throttle

A patch series for the Linux kernel scheduler code is queued up for expected introduction in Linux 6.18 to defer throttle when tasks exit to user-space. These changes to switch the scheduler to a task-based throttle model and task-based throttle time accounting can provide a latency win and also address a possible deadlock situation for real-time "RT" kernels.

Linus Torvalds Grows Frustrated Seeing "Garbage" With "Link: " Tags In Git Commits
6 September 2025 - Link Tags In Patches

Linus Torvalds has grown frustrated enough with seeing "Link: " tags within Git commits/patches that often times they are of no value and he's had enough of it. For Linux kernel activity moving forward he's going to be more strict over "useless" link tags in Git commit messages.
