Feb 1, 2026February 2026 — Qualcomm Linux (meta-qcom) focused on upgrading kernel branches (qcom-6.18.y, updates to 6.18.y-20260220, and linux-qcom-next 6.19 RC) to enable new hardware support, device-tree overlays, PCIe backports, and memory-dump capabilities. Work spanned multiple commits across qcom-next/qcom-6.18.y trees, introducing drivers and overlays for next-gen hardware (LT8713sx bridge, CAMX overlays), QCrypto node support, and expanded DT support for Talos/Lemans platforms, while incorporating backported fixes for ICE power-domain management, UFS clocks, and PCIe stability. In addition, a memory-dump framework and DCC driver integrations were added to improve post-mil/diagnostic capabilities across supported devices.
