The 2.6.27 kernel is out
A bit later than expected, Linus has released the final 2.6.27
kernel. For those just tuning in, 2.6.27 includes (among many other
things) UBIFS, support for integrity checking in the block
layer, multiqueue networking,
the ftrace tracing framework,
the lockless page cache, the
relocation of a lot of
firmware, the GSPCA webcam driver set, and a number of extended system calls.
See the always-excellent
KernelNewbies summary for lots more information about this release.
