Linus Torvalds has announced the second release candidate for Linux kernel 6.3.

Linux kernel 6.3-rc2 released

It's another Sunday afternoon. which must mean another rc release.

This one looks fairly normal, although if you look at the diffs, they are dominated by the removal of a staging driver (r8188eu) that has been superceded by a proper driver. That removal itself is 90% of the diffs.

But if you filter that out, it all looks normal. Still more than two thirds in drivers, but hey, that's pretty normal. It's mostly gpu and networking as usual, but there's various other driver fixes in there too.

Outside of that regular driver noise (and the unusual driver removal noise) it's a little bit of everything: core networking, arch fixes, documentation, filesystems (btrfs, xfs, and ext4, but also some core vfs fixes). And io_uring and some tooling.

The full shortlog is appended, for the adventurous souls that want to get that kind of details. The release feels fairly normal so far, but it's early days. Please keep testing and reporting any issues,

Linus
