Though small, this initial batch of bringup makes good on the ambition of letting kernel devs write kernel code in Rust.Īnother addition to Linux kernel 6.1 is Multi-Generational Least-Recently-Used (aka MG-LRU though this not yet enabled by default). Let’s take a closer look at what those awesome folks have been up to recently… Linux Kernel 6.1 FeaturesĪ major addition to Linux 6.1 is mainline (experimental) support for Rust, the “multi-paradigm, general-purpose programming language” snowballing momentum across the open source landscape. While a great number of those who contribute to the Linux kernel as part of their day job others choose to do so in their free time, of their own accord, and on their own terms. The Linux kernel is developed and maintained by a worldwide community of engineers and enthusiasts. Announcing the arrival on the Linux Kernel Mailing List, Linus Torvalds says: “So here we are, a week late, but last week was nice and slow, and I’m much happier about the state of 6.1 than I was a couple of weeks ago”. Yes, Linux kernel 6.1 is here, ready to power the world’s servers, desktops, smartphones, switches, routers, and everything in between. Linus Torvalds is giving Santa Claus competition as the FOSS-lovin’ Finn is putting the best possible present under the tree this festive season: a brand new Linux kernel.
