  • drgn

    Programmable debugger

  • That's very interesting and has the potential of impact as dtrace did but for the regular non-sysadmin person. Good that they were able to open it. The author posted their github in an answer down here: https://github.com/osandov/drgn

  • libinput

    Initial port of libinput to FreeBSD (by jiixyj)

  • Yup, the details are here: https://github.com/jiixyj/libinput/commit/98793f6b435abf8c17...

    The funny thing is we had the issue once - reported it and added a workaround (used locale-specific calibration tables), then a year later we updated the linux version and had the issue the opposite way till we removed our workaround :)
