summary

Outreachy funds $7,000 three‑month internships and the Linux kernel team runs two cycles per year; mentors plan ~10 days of prep, weekly video calls, and fast reply to unblock interns. Projects deliver concrete code: adds IPC scoping to Landlock with six new security hooks, signal and abstract‑socket scopes, and seven unix‑socket tests plus five signal tests; Vivid driver changes emulate HDMI cable routing across instances so cross‑instance outputs work; several patches are upstream and tests land in kernel trees.
