Linux Kernel 6.15-rc6 released

Linux 3276 Published by Philipp Esselbach 0

Linus Torvalds has announced the sixth release candidate for Linux kernel 6.15, with a slightly higher number of commits than in rc5, but this is not a significant difference.

The release schedule still has two weeks left, and it seems to be on track. The changes include drivers, architecture fixes, filesystems, core networking, and other random stuff. The changes include enabling InterTouch on various devices, adjusting GPU and NPU clocks in nominal DTSI, fixing pm notifier handling, and improving responsiveness of fbnic_mbx_poll_tx_ready. The kernel also includes fixes for a more liberal vmin/vmax update for freesync, a more liberal call for FP Protect Before Mode Programming/Mode Support, and adjustments to interrupt-controllers for stm32mp25 SoCs and stm32mp21 SoCs.

Linus Torvalds has announced the release of the fifth release candidate for Linux kernel 6.15, emphasizing routine updates. The kernel is positioned within the typical statistics for the release candidate 5 timeframe, featuring several drivers that have undergone multiple lines of modifications. The diffstat appears to be predominantly even, with the majority of changes consisting of minor one- and few-line modifications.

This release features significant updates, particularly in the area of self-tests, which account for approximately 20% of the overall changes. The modifications primarily involve drivers and have a significant emphasis on networking. However, changes related to the GPU are minimal this time. The remaining modifications encompass a combination of networking enhancements and various minor adjustments, including architecture improvements, tracing updates, and several core refinements.
