Linus Torvalds has announced that the release of Linux kernel 6.16 has been completed, marking the conclusion of the release cycle. The latest release appears to be in excellent condition, featuring nearly all minor driver updates along with some additional miscellaneous elements included throughout. The kernel has been enhanced with improvements to dma_fence_wait_timeout(), adjustments to DAIF masking in CPU_switch_to(), and the introduction of mute LED support for HP Pavilion 15-eg0xxx.
Linux kernel 6.6.100 has been released.
Linux kernel 6.12.40 has been released.
Linux kernel 6.1.147 has been released.
Linux kernel 6.15.8 has been released.
Linus Torvalds has announced that the seventh release candidate for Linux kernel 6.16 is now available for testing with a few minor fixes and bug fixes. The kernel includes fixes for potential memory leaks, build warnings, DMI entries, and issues with static ftrace. The biggest patches are for documentation, self-tests, or tooling, not actual kernel code changes. The changes include fixes for a leak in fcntl_dirnotify(), a fix for bit masking in tb_dp_port_set_hops(), and a fix for a missing pointer increment in aligned_read(). The biggest changes are for documentation and self-tests or tooling, not kernel code changes. The kernel is in good shape, with no significant changes to its code.
The list of bug fixes in the Linux kernel includes fixes for various issues, such as incorrect masking for channels 4–7 in powerdown mode, missing CONFIG_REGMAP_MMIO, and a reference to an invalid bucket in copygc. Other fixes include reordering output formats on MT8195/88, updating the list of PCI-supported devices, and fixing the size of the received input buffer. Other fixes include enabling interrupts during exception handling, fixing warnings for missing export.h header inclusions, and addressing issues with hv_map/unmap_interrupt() return values. The list also includes fixes for DMIC data sources from GPIO2, as well as a fix for a no-status endpoint.

Linus Torvalds has announced the release of the sixth release candidate for Linux Kernel 6.16.
The list of changes in the Linux kernel includes fixes for various issues, such as shift count out of range, null pointer dereference in rtsn_probe, and recursive locking in pci_msix_write_tph_tag. Other improvements include a new prio for promiscuous mode, correct signedness in skb remaining space calculation, and a fix for non-transmitted BSSID profile search. Other changes include a fix for potential out-of-bounds page table access during batched unmap, a limit on concurrent STA and SoftAP to operate on the same channel, and a fix for eventpoll. Other changes include checking AGP Capability before binding to unsupported devices, moving the WoL function to a shared library, and removing the default log level to non-verbose. The kernel also addresses issues with x86/hyper-v, PCI apple, and arm64.
