Microsoft doing Microsoft things, such as working on the Linux Kernel.
“Microsoft ❤️ Linux”
If I recall correctly there were years when Microsoft was a top contributor to the kernel. Long before Azure. I think it was mostly for Microsoft hardware like joysticks and mice.
It might be because they were developing Azure. And they also include Linux distributions in Windows too, so it makes sense for Microsoft to work on it. Microsoft is one of the few top paying Platinum members in the Linux Foundation: https://www.linuxfoundation.org/about/members
They are working on a secret plan, replace the NT kernel by Linux one.
They will add an extra layer between Windows userland and Linux kernel. /s
I know some of these words
i tought this was gonna be boring, barely beneficial wsl enablement, but they are working on memory allocation. why?
wsl is still on 5.15, isn’t it?
Their entire cloud infrastructure runs on Linux
