    Kernel prepatch 5.2-rc3
    The 5.2-rc3 kernel prepatch has been
    released. "Anyway, even ignoring the SPDX changes, there's just a
    lot of small fixes spread all over, not anything that looks particularly
    scary or worrisome. Maybe next week is when the other shoe drops, but maybe
    this will just be a nice calm release. That would be lovely.

    [$] Yet another try for fs-verity
    The fs‑verity mechanism has its origins in the Android project; its purpose
    is to make individual files read-only and enable the kernel to detect
    any modifications that might have been made, even if those changes happen
    offline. Previous fs‑verity implementations have run into criticism in the
    development community, and none have been merged. A new
    version of the patch set
    was posted on May 23; it features a
    changed user-space API and may have a better chance of getting into the
    mainline.
