Linux 4.6 is out

From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> To: Linux Kernel Mailing List <linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org> Subject: Linux 4.6 is out Date: Sun, 15 May 2016 16:08:29 -0700 Message-ID: <CA+55aFx47cc5-FB4jiBmMV+BLeEUoxHghjWAY_fUir8YG5b=Bw@mail.gmail.com> Archive-link: Article, Thread

It's just as well I didn't cut the rc cycle short, since the last week ended up getting a few more fixes than expected, but nothing in there feels all that odd or out of line. So 4.6 is out there at the normal schedule, and that obviously also means that I'll start doing merge window pull requests for 4.7 starting tomorrow. Since rc7, there's been small noise all over, with driver fixes being the bulk of it, but there is minor noise all over (perf tooling, networking, filesystems, documentation, some small arch fixes..) The appended shortlog will give you a feel for what's been going on during the last week. The 4.6 kernel on the whole was a fairly big release - more commits than we've had in a while. But it all felt fairly calm despite that.
