I mentioned nvim-treesitter-textobjects as a good example of why Tree-sitter is about more than syntax highlighting. To make use of our grammar we can add some capture groups to src/textobjects.scm. For example we can register our code blocks as “functions”:(code_block (code) @function.inner) @function.outerThe objects are arbitrary, but @function is one of the standard objects so I guess it might make sense.

For the better part of two years we've seen Intel open-source software engineers working on preparing the Linux kernel for FRED, the Flexible Return and Event Delivery for defining new transitions for changing privilege levels.

Eric Engestrom with Igalia continues doing a stellar job maintaining the Mesa 23.3 stable series while also leading the Mesa 24.0 release candidates for that upcoming Q1'2024 stable series. Mesa 24.0-rc3 is out this evening as the latest weekly test candidate for Mesa 24.0 that will likely be out officially in early to mid February. There are a few RADV fixes and the normal Intel churn, some work on the common NIR code, and even some Lavapipe and Venus fixes this week.

Earlier this month the GCC 14 compiler landed initial support for AMD RDNA3 "GFX11" graphics processors as part of the GNU Compiler Collection's OpenMP device offloading support for GPU compute. That initial support was rather basic but a follow-up patch has the possibility of making the RDNA3 (GFX11) support "working for most purposes" and will hopefully still be merged in time for the GCC 14.1 stable release.

The Zed code editor being led by the creators of the Atom editor and Tree-sitter syntax parsing framework have announced today that the Zed editor is being open-sourced. Zed is a high performance -- multi-threaded and GPU accelerated -- code editor and boasting an array of features from a built-in terminal to a Vim mode and more. Zed editor has so far been focused on macOS but with it now being open-source will hopefully begin seeing Linux work sooner rather than later.

Teflon has been merged into Mesa 24.1 as a Gallium3D front-end that TensorFlow can load for delegating the execution of operations in a neural network model. Teflon was created initially for the Etnaviv Gallium3D driver for being able to run AI inferencing on Vivante NPUs.
Tomeu Vizoso of Collabora has been spending much time in recent months working on enabling Vivante NPU support within the Mesa Etnaviv driver.

Red Hat's Richard Hughes has released Fwupd 1.9.12 as the newest update to this open-source firmware updating solution that is developed along with the Linux Vendor Firmware Service (LVFS) for simplifying system firmware and peripheral/device firmware updates under Linux. Fwupd 1.9.12 adds support for handling firmware updates on the AVer CAM340plus, a 4K web camera intended as a "huddle room camera" for conference rooms.
