stdcall83··on XMODEM in 2022
I implemeted xmodem over uart as a recovery boot for several SOCs in my career. It's a simple protocol you can actually fit into a small boot ROM and test using RTL. We use it only to load the rest of the bootloader which is few hundreds of kb. Then we switch to networking using rj45 for the rest of the bootstrapping. When using xmodem 1k with higher bps you can get to a decent speed.

stdcall83··on Huawei HKSP Introduces Trivially Exploitable Vulnerability in the Linux Kernel
I have looked at the patch, this is a huge patch file that includes lots of changes, this is not a patch that will ever be reviewed as it's not the standard that is expected from kernel developers: small patches that do specific things.

My guess that it comes from a person who is posting a patch for the first time to the mailing list.

attributing this patch to Huawei doesn't make sense, and if they really did want to introduce a backdoor I'll only assume that they would have prepared much better patches.

these kind of one time submissions are most likely to be ignored in the mailing list..

I think it only got attention because someone saw Huawei in the headline.

I'm blown away here.
