Weighing in on yet another Linux kernel spat - this time over Rust device drivers - Linux supremo Linus Torvalds has shot the messenger.
In response to Asahi Linux lead developer Hector Martin's call for Torvalds to "pipe up with an authoritative answer" to resolve the device driver impasse, and Martin's defense of "shaming on social media" as a way to counter the hostility of Linux maintainers to Rust code, Torvalds dismissed the approach and took aim at Martin.
"How about you accept the fact that maybe the problem is you," said Torvalds, who several years ago acknowledged his own difficulty with diplomatic online interaction. "You think you know better. But the current process works.
"It has problems, but problems are a fact of life. There is no perfect.

"However, I will say that the social media brigading just makes me not want to have anything at all to do with your approach.
"Because if we have issues in the kernel development model, then social media sure as hell isn't the solution. The same way it sure as hell wasn't the solution to politics.
"Technical patches and discussions matter. Social media brigading - no thank you."
