The 5.18 kernel has been released
Monday May 23, 2022. 12:18 AM , from LWN.net
Linus has released the 5.18 kernel.
'No unexpected nasty surprises this last week, so here we go with the 5.18 release right on schedule.' Some of the headline changes in this release include the DAMOS memory-management interface, a number of random-number-generator improvements, the Intel software-defined silicon driver, strict memcpy() bounds checking, a switch to the C11 standard, and more. Also, the Reiserfs filesystem has been deprecated and the last vestiges of a.out support have been removed. See the LWN merge-window summaries (part 1, part 2) and the KernelNewbies 5.18 page for more details.
