Linux 内核 4.2 已经发布 – 附安装说明

Kernel 4.2 已经发布了，这是 Linus Torvalds 近期发布的最大的一个版本，增加了超过100万行代码，移除了大约25万行代码。主要新特性包括：新的AMDGPU驱动；Intel Broxton支持；改进NCQ TRIM处理；F2FS文件系统加密；重写了部分英特尔x86汇编代码；LSM Stacking；延迟梯度网络拥堵控制算法；改进控制组的回写管理等等。

以下内容来自邮件列表：

So judging by how little happened this week, it wouldn’t have been a mistake to release 4.2 last week after all, but hey, there’s certainly a few fixes here, and it’s not like delaying 4.2 for a week should have caused any problems either.

So here it is, and the merge window for 4.3 is now open. I already have a few pending early pull requests, but as usual I’ll start processing them tomorrow and give the release some time to actually sit.
