The 2.6.35 kernel is out
[Posted August 2, 2010 by corbet]
Linus has released the 2.6.35 kernel with
no further prepatches after 2.6.35-rc6, as he had suggested might be
possible. The relatively long announcement includes some thoughts on this
development cycle (he's happy with how it went) and some concerns about the
state of linux-next heading into 2.6.36.
Some headline features in 2.6.35 include receive packet steering and receive flow steering, memory compaction, direct I/O
support for Btrfs, and the usual pile of new drivers. As always, lots of
details can be found on the excellent KernelNewbies 2.6.35 page.
