Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.
WSL2-Linux-Kernel
-
GPL or Apache license for an upcoming PySide2 project?
By the way, Microsoft publishes the WSL kernel source, under GPL, as they must: https://github.com/microsoft/WSL2-Linux-Kernel

LFS from WSL2 on Win10
From here on out it gets a bit hazy. For kernel builds you will have to use the Microsoft Linux Kernel (don't laugh, it's actually a thing). The USBIPD project walks through a WSL kernel build, so you can use that as a guide of sorts. Once you've done everything you need with the disk, the Gentoo project shows how to import it, but if you already have the VHDX file, I think the import-in-place option may be simpler. Take care in CH2 when making the filesystem. I'm not sure if WSL want's only one ext4 partition or if it walks the disk looking for root. There may be some .wslconfig settings for this, my first guess would be kernelCommandLine.

Windows Subsystem for Linux 2.0 release
This was true for WSL1, but WSL2 does contain a Linux kernel. The source code for it is available at:
https://github.com/microsoft/WSL2-Linux-Kernel
- WSL2-Linux-Kernel: Source for the Linux Kernel Used in WSL2
- Instructions for using kernel 6.3.y on WSL2 (you probably shouldn't do this)

Mount aes-adiantum LUKS drive on a kernel without adiantum support
git clone --branch mytag0.1 --depth 1 https://github.com/microsoft/WSL2-Linux-Kernel use tag for your version

Is it possible to manually replace WSL kernel by custom one?
But if you need a custom kernel then build it by taking Microsoft's kernel config as your base and then set the following up accordingly in your %USERPROFILE%\.wslconfig file:
-
WSL - Microsoft Linux
It uses a customized version of the Linux kernel (repo) that integrates with the host Windows OS. You can build any distro on top of that kernel, as people have done with (of course) Arch. The distro isn't any less "real" than a distro that it run on QEMU (and with a level 1 hypervisor, all systems that uses one are technically virtualized already).
-
Gentoo on WSL? Sure!
I recompiled the kernel using sources from https://github.com/microsoft/WSL2-Linux-Kernel with experimental genpatches applied.
-
ZFS raw (passthrough) on WSL: what do you think of my plan?
KERNVER=$(uname -r | cut -f 1 -d'-') git clone --branch linux-msft-$KERNVER --depth 1 https://github.com/microsoft/WSL2-Linux-Kernel.git ~/kern-$KERNVER zcat /proc/config.gz > ~/kern-$KERNVER/.config make -C ~/kern-$KERNVER -j 4 make -C ~/kern-$KERNVER -j 4 modules_install ln -s /lib/modules/$KERNVER-microsoft-standard-WSL2+ /lib/modules/$KERNVER-microsoft-standard-WSL2

Microsoft is ending support for the Windows Subsystem for Android (WSA)
They're even already producing their own Linux distribution, CBL-Mariner, https://github.com/microsoft/azurelinux
-
GitHub and Developer Ecosystem Control
This became even more interesting as Microsoft started to open source core technology such as Powershell, the DotNET platform, their internal Linux distribution, and much more. All this hosting on GitHub also made sense acquisition wise.

Linux hit over 3% desktop user share according to Statcounter
Quite a few servers and network switches, actually.
- SUSE Preserves Choice in Enterprise Linux by Forking RHEL
- LXD is now under Canonical
- CBL-Mariner – internal Linux distribution for Microsoft’s cloud infrastructure
-
What is the future of Windows?
Likely a recognisable ‘Windows’ GUI on-top of CBL-Mariner
- Microsoft has made Azure Linux generally available
-
Excuse me, WHAT THE FUCK
Nothing new. For several years they already developed and maintained CBL-Mariner (Common Build Linux) https://github.com/microsoft/CBL-Mariner Which od a base for Azure Linux and other projects.
