The big set of open-source graphics driver updates for Linux 6.15 have been merged but Linux creator Linus Torvalds isn’t particularly happy with the pull request. In particular, he’s unhappy with some new “hdrtest” testing code being built as part of full kernel builds and the “turds” it leaves behind and this code “needs to die” at least from the perspective of non-DRM driver developers.
Kernel devs used both DRM and HDR for Direct Rendering Manager and Header years before Digital rights management or High dynamic range was a thing. So they have the older rights to this acronyms and the others are the filthy thiefs and imposters 😜
digital rights management (drm) predates linux
The concept yes, the term for it (and the abbreviation) I am not sure.
