Kernel Log: coming in 2.6.37 (Part 4) – Architecture and infrastructure code
On releasing 2.6.37-rc6 last week, Linus Torvalds reiterated that he hoped to release Linux kernel 2.6.37 after the holiday period, around the turn of the year. However things have not been running quite as smoothly as he might like – something which probably also applies to the seventh pre-release version, due for release shortly, since a change aimed at improving hardware resource allocation has now been reverted.
This, Part 4 of our "What's coming in 2.6.37" Kernel Log series, provides an overview of these and other changes in platform-specific and infrastructure-related kernel code. Part 1 of the series dealt with graphics hardware-related changes, Part 2 with file system changes and the Part 3 with changes to network and storage code. The fifth and final part will be published around the turn of the year and will deal with other drivers and the kernel subsystems in which they are found.

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. |
