Linux 5.6-rc3
Fairly normal rc3 as far as I can tell. We've seen bigger, but we've seen smaller ones too. Maybe this is slightly on the low side of average at this time, which would make sense since this was a smaller merge window. Anyway, too much noise in the signal to be sure either way. The overall stats look fairly regular too: about 55% drivers (staging, sound, gpu, networking, and usb look noticeable, with some noise elsewhere). The bulk of the staging diff is actually the vsoc removal, so that's nice. Outside of drivers, we have the usual suspects: arch fixes (powerpc, s390, x86, but also a late csky update that I couldn't find it in myself to worry about). Filesystems (ext4 and btrfs) and networking. And misc sprinkles of small fixes elsewhere. See the appended shortlog for details, Linus

Samsung, Red Hat to Work on Linux Drivers for Future TechThe metaverse is expected to uproot system design as we know it, and Samsung is one of many hardware vendors re-imagining data center infrastructure in preparation for a parallel 3D world. Samsung is working on new memory technologies that provide faster bandwidth inside hardware for data to travel between CPUs, storage and other computing resources. The company also announced it was partnering with Red Hat to ensure these technologies have Linux compatibility. |
