Linus has released the 6.11 kernel. ““I’m once again on the road and not in my normal timezone, but it’s Sunday afternoon here in Vienna, and 6.11 is out.”” Significant changes in this release include new io_uring operations for bind() and listen(), the nested bottom-half locking patches, the ability to write to busy executable files, support for writing block drivers in Rust, support for atomic write operations in the block layer, the dedicated bucket slab allocator, the vDSO implementation of getrandom(), and more. See the LWN merge-window summaries (part 1, part 2) for more information.
excellent
Did this release see
sched_extmerged? Was looking forward to messing around with that.Nope, but it might come with 6.12
nope missed the boat back in July/Aug apparently
Upgrading as soon as BORE patches come out of testing
Anyone else having the problem with the new kernel that graphics in games/benchmarks is quite a lot slower (about 15-20%) then with older kernel (I used 6.10.7 before I upgraded). This is with Powercolor Hellhound AMD Radeon RX 7900 GRE? Even Einstein@Home GPU tasks take about 20% longer now (28 min with previous kernel to about 34 min now).
amber is the color of its energy!
I wonder if more Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite-related code was merged.
any updates for wifi 7 drivers?
