emva koyedwa Khipha Okhethiweyo Wokuqala lokho kushicilelwe ngoMsombuluko, I-Linux 5.4-rc2 ubuyile ngeSonto. Umqambi wayo, uLinus Torvalds, uthe ngesonto eledlule isizathu sokuthi ikhishwe ngoMsombuluko akubanga ngenxa yanoma yini ekhethekile noma okuthile okumele ikhathazeke, kodwa kungenxa yohlelo oluhlukile. Kuleli sonto, lelo hlelo libuyele esimweni salo semvelo, ngakho-ke babe nezinsuku eziyisithupha zokuzilungiselela esikhundleni sezinsuku eziyisikhombisa ezijwayelekile.
I-Linux 5.4-rc2 ibonakala njengeKhandidethi Yokukhishwa ezolile kunazo zonke ezinyangeni. Izindaba ukuthi azikho izindaba, akukho okuvelele ngaphezu kwalokho yethulwe ngeSonto, futhi lokhu kumane kuyizindaba ngoba okhethwe okokuqala ekhishwa ngeSonto. Kepha okuyiqiniso futhi ukuthi, njengoba Inhloso Ama-Torvalds, ama-rc2s ngokuvamile athule futhi kufanele ulinde isikhashana nezinguqulo zezinkinga ezizotholakala.
I-Linux 5.4-rc2 incane futhi, ngemuva kwama-rc2 amakhulu ka-5.2 no-5.3
I-Linux 5.4-rc2 ibuyele ekubeni yiCandiate encane yokukhishwa, njengoba bejwayelekile futhi hhayi njengoba babenjalo ngo-5.2 naku-5.3. UTorvalds uthi esinye sezizathu esizibalile ngenhla kwale migqa: kube khona usuku olulodwa lomsebenzi. Kokuyisithupha abanakho, babhekane nokubuyekezwa kokwakhiwa kwamabhilidi, abashayeli nokuxubile (kmv, amanethiwekhi, amasistimu wamafayela, i-kernel, njll), konke kusatshalaliswe ngokulinganayo.
I-Linux 5.4 kuzoba ukukhishwa okukhulu okulandelayo futhi kuzoba njalo itholakala ngasekupheleni kukaNovemba noma ekuqaleni kukaDisemba. Ngeke ifake izindaba eziningi ezibalulekile njenge- I-Linux kernel v5.3, kepha izongeza imodyuli entsha yezokuphepha, phakathi kwezinye izinto, ezovimbela umsebenzisi onobungozi ekusebenziseni ukwehluleka kohlelo ukwenza ukukhishwa kwekhodi ekude, into abayibize ngeLockdown. Umsebenzi uzokwenziwa ungasebenzi ngokuzenzakalela futhi kuzoba ukusatshalaliswa okuzophatha ukunquma ukuthi kuzowusebenzisa noma cha.
