#9#5las versiones impares del kernel de linux (2.7, por ejemplo) corresponden a las versiones de desarrollo.
No desde hace 6 años. Después de Linux 3.0. se supone que viene Linux 3.1
NOTHING. Absolutely nothing. Sure, we have the usual two thirds driver
changes, and a lot of random fixes, but the point is that 3.0 is just about renumbering, we are very much not doing a KDE-4 or a
Gnome-3 here. No breakage, no special scary new features, nothing at
all like that. We've been doing time-based releases for many years
now, this is in no way about features. If you want an excuse for the
renumbering, you really should look at the time-based one ("20 years")
instead.
So no ABI changes, no API changes, no magical new features - just
steady plodding progress. In addition to the driver changes (and the
bulk really is driver updates), we've had some nice VFS cleanups,
various VM fixes, some nice initial ARM consolidation (yay!) and in
general this is supposed to be a fairly normal release cycle. The
merge window was a few days shorter than usual, but if that ends up
meaning a smaller release and a nice stable 3.0 release, that is all
good. There's absolutely no reason to aim for the traditional ".0"
problems that so many projects have.
Este va a ser uno de los kernel más aburridos en mucho tiempo.
PS: Las cosas interesantes han pasado en los 2.6.X
- Nuevo planificador de procesos CFS
- Nuevo sistema de ficheros estándar Ext4.
- La introducción de BTRFS sistema de ficheros heredero de ZFS de Sun(no del todo lísto, pero en mainline)
- Soporte de virtualización con KVM.
- Unificación x86
- Eliminación del BKL(Big kernel Lock, un estúpido mutex global).
- Soporte de varias arquitecturas de CPU nuevas comblackfin, Tilera
- Cambios clave en la pila gráfica KMS y GEM
- Soporte de depuración: Kgdb,
- Una pila wifi de verdad.
- Grandes cambios en gestión de memoria.
