Linux 6.17 AMD PMF Driver Adding New ACPI ID For Upcoming AMD Platform
18 September 2025 - "upcoming AMD platforms"

A new round of platform-drivers-x86 "fixes" were submitted today for the nearly-complete Linux 6.17 kernel cycle. While on the fixes stage of the kernel, the x86 platform driver changes can be interesting when it comes to new device IDs for enabling new products late in the kernel cycle.

Linux 6.18 Expected To Land Google's Rust Binder Driver
21 September 2025 - Rust Binder

The past few years Google engineers have been reimplementing Android's Binder driver in the Rust programming language. Binder is a critical part of Android for inter-process communication (IPC) and now with Linux 6.18 it looks like the Rust rewrite will be upstreamed.

Multi-Kernel Architecture Proposed For The Linux Kernel
21 September 2025 - Linux Multi-Kernel Architecture

Code was open-sourced this week and posted to the Linux kernel mailing list as a "request for comments" (RFC) for a multi-kernel architecture. This proposal could allow for multiple independent kernel instances to co-exist on a single physical machine. Each kernel could run on dedicated CPU Cores while sharing underlying hardware resources. This could also allow for some complex use-cases such as real-time (RT) kernels running on select CPU cores.

Bytedance Proposes "Parker" For Linux: Multiple Kernels Running Simultaneously
23 September 2025 - Linux Parker

It was just a few days ago that a multi-kernel architecture was proposed for the Linux kernel. Separate from that proposal from Multikernel Technologies, it turns out Bytedance has been working on their own similar solution called Parker. Today Bytedance lifted the lid on Parker as their solution for running multiple kernels simultaneously on the same hardware/system.
