[$] Accessing new kernel features from Python

Every release of the Linux kernel has lots of new features, many of which
are accessible from user space. Usually, though, the GNU C Library (glibc)
and tools that access the Linux user-space API lag behind the kernel
releases. Geoffrey Thomas showed how Python programs can access these new
kernel features as soon as the kernel is released in his 'What's New in the
Linux Kernel... from Python' talk at
PyCon US 2025. While he had two
examples of accessing new kernel features, the real goal of the talk was to
demonstrate how to go about connecting Python to
the Linux kernel.
