Linus Torvalds calls Google engineer's RISC-V code "garbage" in Linux 6.17 dispute
The submission, made late in the Linux 6.17 merge window, aimed to introduce new features for RISC-V. However, Torvalds decisively rejected the pull request, citing two main issues: insufficient technical merit and poor timing. He emphasized that the lateness of the request was particularly egregious given his prior notice that...Read Entire Article
Linux's father rejected a RISC-V code contribution sent by a Google engineer for the 6.17 kernel, considering it to include unnecessary changes in generic files.
Linus Torvalds, the creator of Linux, has rejected a patch for the kernel 6.17 sent at the last minute by Palmer Dabbelt, engineer of Google’s Android team. The code, related to the RISC-V architecture, not only came out of time, but also included changes in generic kernel headers, something that Torvalds described as counterproductive and “garbage.” The rejection was due to two main reasons. First, the request was filed just before the integrat…
