Linux 6.15-rc5 Released: "Most Of It Looks Very Nice & Small"


The fifth weekly release candidate of the Linux 6.15 kernel is now available for testing.

There's a couple of drivers with more than a few lines of changes (and on the filesystem side we have some bcachefs and smb client fixes), but most of it looks very nice and small. Not counting the selftests, the rest is mostly drivers (networking dominates, and for once gpu is tiny), with the already mentioned filesystem changes coming in second. There are many great Linux 6.15 features and changes to look forward to with that next kernel stable release in likely three or four weeks from today.
