AptiviLinux 6.17 RC3 released!
Linux 6.17 RC3 is now live for developers and curious users to try out. All the interesting changes from performance improvements to bug fixes have been integrated to this release candidate.
During the development of Linux 6.17, delays are to be expected due to Torvalds’ busy schedule. However, in the release announcement for this version of the kernel, he said:
I'm still traveling for family reasons, so slightly unusual timing for rc3, but it's (barely) afternoon here on the East coast, so the usual Sunday afternoon schedule technically still holds.As suspected, rc3 ends up being a bit larger than usual, to balance out the tiny rc2. Yes, 3.17 seems to be generally in pretty good shape, but nobody *really* believed that it was as good as that tiny rc2 would make it seem.
And while rc3 is on the larger side, it's by no means anything outrageously so, it's well within the normal parameters.
The diffstat looks fairly normal too: about half drivers (spread all over, we've got a bit of everything, but mellanox mlx5 stands out if you want to pick out any particular area). There's a fair chunk of added selftests and some more Rust support, and then a random collection of fixes all over: architecture code, filesystems, VM and core networking.
Anyway, things seem fairly normal for this phase in the release cycle, nothing stands out. Please keep testing,
Why not try out this awesome pre-release of Linux 6.17?
