Linux 6.15 Released
28 May 2025 tags: audit lsm selinuxLinux v6.15 was released on Sunday, May 25th. I already wrote up a post highlighting the LSM, SELinux, and audit changes that were submitted during the merge window. However, there were additional changes that went into Linux v6.15 that are described below.
LSM
- Minor changes to the
security_bpf()LSM hook, and associated SELinux callback, to support future work on BPF signature validation.
Audit
- Minor updates to the audit filesystem watch code to reflect changes in the VFS subsystem.
In addition to my highlights, LWN.net provides a nice overall summary of the kernel changes made during the first and second weeks of the merge window.
