So 5.18 is looking like it's going to be one of the larger releases in
numbers of commits (we'll see where it ends up - it's going to be
neck-and-neck with 5.14 right now, but won't be as big as 5.13 was).
But despite the merge window being big, the release candidates have
generally been quite modest in size, and rc6 continues that trend. I
keep expecting the other shoe to drop, but 5.18 just seems to be quite
well-behaved.
Let's see if this jinxes it, but nothing looks particularly scary
here. rc6 looks to be mostly some driver updates (network drivers and
rdma stand out, small random fixes elsewhere), with the usual
smattering of architecture updates (x86 kvm fixes, but also a
long-standing x86 kernel FP use issue, and a smattering of parisc and
powerpc fixes). And some wireguard selftest updates.
The rest is mostly some btrfs fixes, some core networking, and just
random small one-offs elsewhere.
Please do go test it all out - because things may look good now, but
continued testing is the only thing that will make sure.
Thanks,
Linus
