I-Linus Torvalds ibhengeze ngempelaveki ukumiliselwa kwe I-4.18th kunye neyokugqibela ye-RC (uMgqatswa wokuGqibela) inguqulelo yeLinux Kernel XNUMX, ikwangqina ukufika okusondeleyo kwenguqu yokugqibela kwiveki ezayo.
I-Linux Kernel 4.18 RC7 ngoku iyafumaneka kuvavanyo lwasesidlangalaleni kunye neLinus Torvalds iingxelo zokuba akukho nto ingaqhelekanga kolu khululo ngaphandle kokulungiswa kwe-bug encinci, kuqatshelwa ukuba oku kukukhutshwa kokugqibela ngaphambi kokuphela okunokuqala ekupheleni kwale veki, nge-5 ka-Agasti.
"Akukho nto ibaluleke kakhulu yenzekileyo kule veki, besinokulungiswa kwe-bug encinci. Malunga nesibini kwisithathu sezi mpazamo zivela kubaqhubi, kodwa kukwakho nezinye iindidi ezimbalwa, ukuba akukho nto ingaqhelekanga yenzekayo, le iya kuba yi-RC yokugqibela ye-4.18”. Ukukhankanywa kweLinus Torvalds.
I-Linux Kernel 4.18 ithembisa amanqaku amatsha kunye nophuculo olunokuba nomdla kwezinye. Eyona nto ibaluleke kakhulu kuyo ibandakanya ukulungiswa kwe-Specter Variants 1 kunye ne-2 ye-32-bit ye-ARM yoyilo, kunye nomhlanganisi weenkqubo ze-eBPF kwi-86-bit x32 yoyilo.
I-Linux 4.18 ikwabandakanya ukhuseleko lokwahluka kweSpecter 4 se-ARM 64 kunye ne-ARMv8 yoyilo, Inkxaso ephuculweyo yenkqubo yefayile yeF2FS, inkxaso engcono ye-USB-C kunye ne-USB 3.2, inkxaso esemthethweni yeSpapdragon 845 kunye Inkxaso yokuqala yamakhadi emizobo eRadeon Vega.
Njengoko kulindelwe, zininzi ezinye izinto eziphuculweyo kunye nabaqhubi abatsha benkxaso yehardware kunye nokusebenza okongeziweyo kweLinux Kernel 4.18. Ukukhutshwa kwangoku kufuneka kufike ngo-Agasti 5, 2018, kodwa kungathatha iiveki ezimbalwa ukufikelela kwizikhundla ezisemthethweni zolwabiwo olwahlukeneyo.
Okwangoku, unokukhuphela i-RC 7 inguqulelo yeLinux Kernel 4.18 kwiKernel.org, kodwa gcinani engqondweni ukuba nangona icwecwe ngokwaneleyo, ayikabikho uguqulelo lokugqibela ukuze ungayithathi indawo yekernel yakho ezinzileyo.
