OpenBSD 8.0 release will have inteldrm/radeondrm/amdgpu drivers from Linux 6.18

I think it's about time for some #OpenBSD #80HYPE Clang/LLVM 22 is now OpenBSD's base compiler on clang architectures, including updated libc++{,abi}, compiler-rt & libunwind support libraries. https:// bsd.network/@brynet/1166580624 79940402 OpenBSD/sparc64 switches to Clang by default! This was the last significant architecture to switch. This makes OpenBSD the only operating system to support sparc64 with a modern toolchain. https:// bsd.network/@brynet/1171301305 36792528 Since 7.9, Jonathan Gray (jsg@) has continued to update the drm graphics stack (inteldrm/radeondrm/amdgpu) bringing OpenBSD 8.0 to Linux 6.18.y/6.18.53, adding driver support for Intel Arc A-Series (DG2/Alchemist) cards. Increased KVA (kernel virtual addresses) on amd64 (to 512G) now allows mapping more than 4G of VRAM (for example, GPU compute w/ Vulkan) https:// freshbsd.org/openbsd/src?q=drm &committer[]=jsg https:// bsd.network/@brynet/1167944616 42940154 After a ton of work in Edmonton by Mike Larkin (mlarkin@) and Dave Voutila (dv@), OpenBSD vmm/vmd(8) now supports SMP guests up to 64 VCPUs per VM! 🎉 https:// bsd.network/@brynet/1172950441 09301163 https:// bsd.network/@brynet/1172997536 68348206 OpenBSD 8.0 adds qwz(4), new WiFi driver for Qualcomm WCN7850 "ath12k" devices. https:// bsd.network/@brynet/1165743693 82033904 A new driver, sambat(4), for monitoring battery status, cycle count/charge info on Samsung Galaxy Book4 Edge (Snapdragon arm64) machines. https:// bsd.network/@brynet/1166006745 74234896 Accelerated swap encryption on amd64 and arm64 by using AES CPU instructions. https:// bsd.network/@brynet/1170908422 36460135 OpenBSD/arm64 and OpenBSD/riscv64 boards can now heartbeat blinking LEDs to show system load averages. Das Blinkenlights!! https:// bsd.network/@brynet/1168794791 68132932 #OpenBSD httpd(8) now supports many new features: Setting custom HTTP response headers. New blocking/filtering rules based on received HTTP headers (e.g: User-Agent: ) https:// bsd.network/@brynet/1173716044 63587328 https:// bsd.network/@brynet/1169791332 75422995 See also rsadowski@'s report: https:// rsadowski.de/posts/2026/w2k26- edmonton-openbsd-hackathon/ .. and finally, I made my first commit to #OpenSSH this release cycle! https:// bsd.network/@brynet/1170078335 31799959 And lots more to see in 8.0!
