Improved Sound Open Firmware On The Way For Valve's Steam Deck OLED

You can increase the limit. E.g. GIT installer offers that with one click.

...and applications can opt out on a case-by-case basis: https://googleprojectzero.blogspot.c...n32-to-nt.html

Well NT is so irrelevant by now with its 260 MAX_PATH limitation, I doubt anyone cares about its obfuscated bugs anymore, nobody ever uses it for anything serious.

At least in IT.

I wonder how does the Windows NT kernel fare in comparison to the Linux kernel regarding such regressions. It seems regressions like these are becoming more and more common. Now the most reliable filesystem on Linux isn't immune as well..

Edit: Also, notice this comment :

I mean, this is insanity. Whoever did that needs to be fired. Now this ended up in 6.1 LTS, so it affects Debian Stable.

Hopefully Valve didn't push out any updates for the "stable" 6.1 kernel to land on the ext4 data corruption bug.

Edit: Also, notice this comment :

Indeed, why was it picked up from 6.5-rc1 (a test kernel!) and backported to stable kernels? Why would any commit be picked up from rc1 through to rc8 etc? It's basic risk management not to do that

"upsteam"
I see what you did there.
