Linux 2986 Published by

Linus Torvalds has announced the release of the seventh and most likely final release candidate for Linux Kernel 5.15.



Linux kernel 5.15-rc7 released

So the normal Sunday release was spoiled by me spending more time in airplanes without wifi, and I didn't feel like doing an evening release while tired, so here we are, midday Monday, and with tc7 a day later than usual.

But the delay isn't because of any kernel trouble. In fact, the worry I had last week about a big rc6 turned out to be just a false alarm due to timing of pulls, and rc7 looks nice and small, right in the range of normal. Both the number of commits and the diffstat looks fine. It's all pretty small and flat (meaning mostly small trivial changes) with just a couple of  peaks for some x86 kvm code, and some ksmbd changes.

Nothing particularly interesting or scary stands out, and it's a fairly eclectic mix with networking, kvm, selftests, and some core mm stuff. With all the usual random small fixes. The appended shortlog isn't too long to scan to get a feel for the details, but I think the take-way here is that it all looks pretty normal, and if nothing special happens this week, this is likely the last rc before final 5.15.

But please do give it a good testing to make sure we've shaken out any issues. I have yet more travel coming up next week, so it would be very convenient for me to delay the merge window if I get the excuse to do so, but right now that looks unlikely.
