Akusangabazi ukuthi inguqulo elandelayo ye-LTS ye-Linux kernel ingaba yini, kunjalo 5.15, kakade kufanele ucabange ngekusasa. Inguqulo elandelayo ngeke ibe nokuthuthuka okushelelayo, njengoba izicelo eziningi zalethwa efasiteleni lokuhlanganisa, futhi emahoreni ambalwa edlule uLinus Torvalds Usungule un I-Linux 5.16-rc1 ayelindele izinkinga eziningi kunalokho abenazo ekugcineni, okungenani okwamanje.
Ingxenye ye- izinkinga zihlobene nesikhathi, noma ikakhulukazi ngokuthi umthuthukisi waseFinland uzowuthola kuphi futhi nini umsebenzi. Njengokuvamile, ubuhamba futhi usebenza kukhompuyutha ephathekayo ekuqaleni kwesikhathi sokuhlanganisa, okuyinto evame ukucasula hhayi izikhathi ezihamba phambili. Noma kunjalo, konke kuhambe kahle, ngokwengxenye sibonga abantu abathumele izicelo zabo kusenesikhathi.
I-Linux 5.16-rc1 izofaka izici eziningi ezintsha
“Iqiniso liwukuthi bengilindele izinkinga eziningi ngesikhathi sokuhlanganisa kunalezo ezenzeke: Bengihamba nekhompyutha ephathekayo izinsuku ezimbalwa ekuqaleni kwesikhathi sokuhlanganisa, futhi lokho kuvamise ukuba buhlungu kakhulu. Kodwa, shaya izinkuni, konke kwahamba kahle. Ngokwengxenye ngibonga iqiniso lokuthi abantu abaningi bathumele izicelo zabo kusenesikhathi, ukuze ngithole inzuzo encane ngaphambi kohambo.
I-Linux 5.16-rc1 iyiKhandidethi Yokukhishwa yokuqala yenguqulo ye-kernel lapho izici eziningi ezintsha zilindelwe. Mhlawumbe lokho kube ngesinye sezizathu ezenza umnakekeli oyinhloko we-kernel abhalwe ukuthi 5.15 njenge-LTS, ngoba kwakuyinketho yokugcina ukuba ne-kernel Yokusekela Isikhathi Eside ngo-2021 futhi ngoba inguqulo egcwele kahle ngaphandle kwezinguquko ezinkulu ezingahumushela ku inkathazo. I-Linux 5.16 izofika isesimweni senguqulo ezinzile maphakathi noJanuwari 2021 futhi, njengenjwayelo, abasebenzisi be-Ubuntu abafuna ukuyisebenzisa ngesikhathi sokukhululwa kuyodingeka bayifake bodwa.
