Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) is a feature of Microsoft Windows that allows the use of a GNU/Linux environment from within Windows, foregoing the overhead of a virtual machine and being an alternative to dual booting.
sync is a standard system call in the Unix operating system, which commits all data from the kernel filesystem buffers to non-volatile storage, i.e., data which has been scheduled for writing via low-level I/O system calls.
Computer programming portal; Linux portal; io_uring [a] (previously known as aioring) is a Linux kernel system call interface for storage device asynchronous I/O operations addressing performance issues with similar interfaces provided by functions like read()/write() or aio_read()/aio_write() etc. for operations on data accessed by file descriptors.

On Linux, a kernel panic causes keyboard LEDs to blink as a visual indication of a critical condition. [14] As of Linux 6.10, drm_panic was merged allowing DRM drivers to support drawing a panic screen to inform the user that a panic occurred. This allows a panic screen to appear even when a display server was running when the panic occurred.
This article documents the version history of the Linux kernel.. Each major version – identified by the first two numbers of a release version – is designated one of the following levels of support:
Longene aims to add all Windows kernel mechanisms, including system calls, Windows Registry, Windows Driver Model, Deferred Procedure Call, and others, into the Linux kernel to form a new kernel. The new kernel will allow both Linux and Windows applications and device drivers to work without virtualization or emulation.
The selection of fsync over fdatasync is a compile-time switch that is not the default behavior in current Linux builds of LMDB but is the default on macOS, *BSD, Android, and Windows. Default Linux builds of LMDB are, therefore, the only ones vulnerable to the problem discovered by the zhengmai researchers however, LMDB may simply be rebuilt ...
