Intel Brings RPL-M/RPL-P SoundWire To Upstream Linux For Raptor Lake Powered Automobiles

Intel has posted patches adding SoundWire support to the upstream Intel AVS driver for Raptor Lake P and Raptor Lake M platforms. SoundWire handles audio streaming on these chips in automotive use cases. The platforms power Intel's 'Malibou Lake', its first-generation Software Defined Vehicle platform for in-vehicle computing, digital cockpits, and camera processing. This SoundWire work is being brought to the public domain, which the author notes is the first time it has been upstreamed. Future SDV platforms will use Raptor Lake and Nova Lake chips.

sbom-cve-check 1.4.0 released

sbom-cve-check 1.4.0 has been released, adding an OpenVEX exporter and improving Linux kernel CVE analysis and version parsing. The new openvex export type, contributed by Andrey Zhizhikin, generates OpenVEX v0.2.0 documents with VEX assessments, configurable via a new --export-author option. Kernel CVE handling now distinguishes mainline versions like 6.12 from stable versions like 6.12.34 to reduce false positives and negatives. Version parsing also gained support for formats like 0.9~rc5 and Ubuntu-style suffixes, and build metadata like 1.25.0+4f85853f64 is now ignored per semver rules. Install or upgrade with pip install --upgrade "sbom-cve-check[extra]".

What is malloc doing, anyway?

malloc has a very nice and simple interface: you ask for a certain amount of memory, and you’re given a void pointer to your block of contiguous bytes that’s been magicked into existence. Once you’re done with it, you call free with the same pointer and the memory disappears into the ether.
