The University of Minnesota has been banned from the Linux kernel.
We'll share the history, the context, and where things stand now around the controversial research that led to the ban.
Plus Ubuntu 21.04 is out, and we try WSL's new GUI Linux app support. Sponsored By: Support Linux Action News Links: - Intentionally buggy commits for fame—and papers [LWN.net] — A buggy patch posted to the linux-kernel mailing list in early April was apparently the last straw for Greg Kroah-Hartman as it led to the planned reversion of a whole slew of commits with one thing in common: their origin at the University of Minnesota (UMN).
- An open letter to the Linux community [LWN.net] — We sincerely apologize for any harm our research group did to the Linux kernel community. Our goal was to identify issues with the patching process and ways to address them, and we are very sorry that the method used in the “hypocrite commits” paper was inappropriate.
