Linux Preparing Faster FAT32 Performance In 2027 With Up To 4.06x Improvement

Linux's FAT32 driver is getting another performance boost, this time up to 4.06x on synchronous mounts. Developer Matheus Alves de Almeida worked on batching synchronous mirror writes instead of synchronizing buffer-by-buffer, which currently serializes I/O and hurts performance. The patch is in Andrew Morton's mm-everything branch and could land in Linux 7.5. Earlier FAT32 performance improvements are slated for Linux 7.4.

DeviceTree For Hackers: Intro

A leaked Raspberry Pi DeviceTree file reveals hardware details of the Pi Zero 3W, including a BCM2711 chip, PCIe support, a power button, an extra LED, and an eMMC option. This serves as the entry point for an intro to DeviceTree, the format that tells Linux kernels what CPU, drivers, and interfaces a board has. DeviceTree source files (.dts, .dtsi) compile into binary .dtb/.dtbo files the kernel reads, and the device-tree-compiler package handles both compiling and decompiling. The guide covers includes, base files, and overlays, recommends learning from Raspberry Pi's overlay directory and repos like Radxa and Armbian, and warns that LLMs sometimes hallucinate overlay properties.

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]".

Inside PGO

In the previous article , we made Go code faster by changing how it computes. SIMD lets one CPU instruction work on several values at once, and the simd/archsimd and simd packages give Go access to it. Our dot product ran about 9 times faster, but the code got a lot harder to read. At the end, I promised another route to speed, one where you don’t rewrite anything. That route is Profile-Guided Optimization (PGO). You record a CPU profile of where your program spends its time and give it back to the compiler, so it can work harder on the code that is actually hot. Your source stays exactly as it was. We briefly saw it in the IR post , and today we’re going deep into it.
