Who owns the patch when the model wrote it?
Kernel maintainers and Emacs developers are drawing the same line at once: undisclosed LLM help is not a process detail, it is a trust and philosophy problem.

HAWK break and McEliece caution feed doubts on PQC readiness
A practical key-recovery result on HAWK and a BSI warning against new Classic McEliece deployments crystallize skepticism about several post-quantum candidates just as migration clocks tighten.

By ttlLinux skbuff core turns crash BUG_ONs into recoverable warnings
Josef Bacik's net-next work replaces 17 hard panics in packet buffer code with WARN_ON_ONCE and existing error returns, after dozens of real-world crashes including some reachable from user namespaces.

A trimmed v22 series adds VM-type abstractions and non-runnable Realm scaffolding so confidential guests can share common paths with pKVM.

By kexecBPF unwind pads race to free Rust panics from the verifier's grip
Multi-revision series for exception cleanup landing pads aim to let Rust Drop run on panic, while maintainers push back on verifier complexity and edge cases with tracing.
