Subject: Linux 6.19-rc1
So it's Sunday afternoon in the part of the world where I am now, so
if somebody was looking at trying to limbo under the merge window
timing with one last pull request and is taken by surprise by the
slightly unusual timing of the rc1 release, that failed.
Teaching moment, or random capricious acts? You be the judge.
Anyway, this merge window was slightly unusual in how we had a number
of kernel maintainers on the road the last week due to the yearly
maintainer summit, but also in how some of the core pull requests were
about various conversions to expand on and use more of our automatic
compiler cleanup infrastructure. That happened in several subsystems,
but the VFS layer stands out.
And on the Rust front, we are now starting to see several actual
drivers starting to take form. The "mainly preparation and
infrastructure" phase is starting to become "actual driver and
subsystems development".
That said, despite a few unusual patterns, the big picture really
looks pretty normal: half the rc1 patch is driver updates (gpu,
networking, media and sound stand out as big subsystems as usual, but
there's pretty much everything in there). The rest is all over the
map, with architecture updates, tooling, Rust support, tooling,
documentation, and core kernel (mm, scheduler, networking) updates.
Below is my mergelog as a rough overview of what I've pulled and from
who - for full details you have to go to the git tree.
