Welcome to the LWN.net Weekly Edition for February 20, 2020

• Debian discusses how to handle 2038: now that the kernel work to support 32-bit systems past 2038 is mostly done, what will be required to get Debian into shape?
• Finer-grained kernel address-space layout randomization: a new KASLR proposal surfaces.
• Revisiting stable-kernel regressions: how many patches distributed in stable kernels bring problems with them?
• Keeping secrets in memfd areas: a new API to manage memory with secret contents.
• Filesystem UID mapping for user namespaces: yet another shiftfs: a third approach to the problem of shifting user and group IDs for filesystem access within user namespaces.

This week's edition also includes these inner pages:

• Brief items: Brief news items from throughout the community.
• Announcements: Newsletters, conferences, security updates, patches, and more.
