Linus Torvalds ubhengeze lo Mviwa mtsha ukhululiweyo we-Linux kernel 6. Le projekthi ikhokelela kuphehlelelo oluqhelekileyo njengoko iLinus ibonakalisile kwingxelo. Njengoko ephawulile, abanangxaki zininzi kwaye akukho nto ingaqhelekanga, ngenxa yoko bahlangabezana nokulindelweyo ngalo mzuzu. Kwakhona, uLinus ukwenze kwacaca ukuba iLinux 5.0 rc5.0 inkulu kancinci kunokuba ebeya kuthanda kwaye sisiphumo sotshintsho abalwenzileyo kwiindawo.
Las iindaba okanye uphuhliso olwenziwe kule kernel, njengoko ndicinga njalo. Kukho konke ngaphezulu okanye ngaphantsi okufanayo, ukulungiswa kwezinye iibhugi, ukuphuculwa kwabaqhubi, njl. Ngeli thuba, eyona nto isebenze kakhulu yinethiwekhi, bobabini abalawuli kunye nentloko, emele malunga nekota yotshintsho olupheleleyo lwe-RC6. Kodwa ayisiyiyo kuphela kwento eyenziweyo ...
Umsebenzi wenziwe nakweminye imiba enje abalawuli I-GPU, i-DMA, i-IIO, isandi, i-USB, i-MISC, kunye nexesha elide njl. Ngokunjalo, bekukho utshintsho kwenye indawo ebalulekileyo, uyilo njengesiqhelo. Ikhowudi ebhekisa kubuchule bokwakha yiyo emisela indlela yokuziphatha kunye nokwenza ngcono ii-microprocessors ezisebenza phantsi kweLinux, ke ngoko kubaluleke ngakumbi ukuba uyikhathalele.
Phakathi uyilo eziye zacwangciswa zi-ARM, MIPS, x86, kunye nePowerPC. Kwangokunjalo, umba we-FS ukwenziwe nawo ukuphucula yonke into enxulumene neenkqubo zeefayile zemithombo yeendaba zethu zokugcina. Kwaye i-kernel ngokwayo yenye yeempawu eziphambili malunga nomsebenzi wabaphuhlisi be-kernel. Njengoko iLinus isitsho kakuhle kwi-LKML, «[..] akukho nanye kwezi ebonakala ingaqhelekanga okanye yoyikisayo. Ndicinga ukuba sisendleleni eya kulwaziso oluqhelekileyo."...
