Linux 6.12-rc1 Released With QR Code Panic Messages, PREEMPT_RT & Sched_ext
As expected the Linux 6.12-rc1 kernel is out today in marking the end of the very exciting two-week Linux 6.12 merge window that saw many high profile features land.
The Linux 6.12 kernel brings Intel Xe2 graphics for Lunar Lake and Battlemage enabled by default, real-time "PREEMPT_RT" support has finally been mainlined, Sched_ext has been merged, QR code DRM panic messages, and much, much more. So far Linus Torvalds hasn't issued his customary 6.12-rc1 announcement to the mailing list, but the code is available via Git for those interested. Linux 6.12 stable should be out mid-to-late November and given the timing is expected to be this year's Long-Term Support (LTS) kernel release.
