— Linux Kernel Releases (@LinuxKReleases) June 15, 2025

Megjelent és tesztelhető a 6.16-os Linux kernel második prepatche:

  • csendes hét, kicsi rc2 — még az átlagosnál is kisebb
  • valószínűleg a nagy merge window után pihenő, vagy szezonális (európai nyári szabadságok) okok miatt
  • diffstat szokatlan: sok egy-soros módosítás, főleg ARC és pincontrol trivialitások
  • egyébként főleg hálózati driverek, bluetooth, bcachefs, rust infrastruktúra és core networking változások
  • szokás szerint kisebb random javítások is vannak

Pretty quiet week, with a pretty small rc2 as a result. That's not
uncommon, and things tend to pick up at rc3, but this is admittedly
even smaller than usual.

It may be that people are taking a breather after a fairly sizable
merge window, but it might also be seasonal, with Europe starting to
see summer vacations... We'll see how this goes.

The diffstat looks somewhat unusual, with a lot of one-liners with
both ARC and pincontrol having (presumably independently) ended up
doing some unrelated trivial cleanups.

But even that is probably noticeable only because everything else is
pretty small. That "everything else" is mostly network drivers (and
bluetooth) and bcachefs, with some rust infrastructure and core
networking changes thrown in.

And, as always, just random smaller stuff all over. Shortlog appended
for people who like to see the details.
