RHEL gets loads of features backported and this is a tiny one, so I'd expect them to do it. It might take them a while though....

It has nothing to do with vendor lock-in. It's an open-source project (Chromium) deciding to depend on a recent feature in the Linux kernel. The feature...

It's a new feature, not a bug fix... you don't what happened or understand the issue this addresses but yet you're using it to confirm your pre-existing...

Since 1.16 X.Org can run as a regular user on Linux without any hacks thanks to logind. Wayland takes this further and isolates input and buffers between...

ntpd can be run as non-root but it holds onto the CAP_SYS_TIME capability. It's set up this way by default in the packages for these daemons (chrony /...

I think you're placing the blame on the browser for driver problems. In my experience, the Nvidia driver doesn't handle concurrent OpenGL usage from multiple...

Clang implements the language features required for C11 threads like _Thread_local, atomics and the memory model. The rest is up to the C standard library...

Neither Clang and GCC includes an implementation of the C standard library. Both compilers support the C11 / C++11 memory model including the atomic operations....
