Linux 6.8 released
Linux 6.8 released
Linus is always good value. Looks like we will hit 10 million git objectives on the 6.9 release. What a day to be alive. First 4.20 and now 6.9. truly blessed
Don't forget we also had 6.6.6
I totally did miss it. All of 6.6 bricked my system. Only after rebuilding against 6.8 did it boot correctly. (Probably a user issue rather than a kernel issue)
Need to give this a shot. I'm still stuck on 6.6 since 6.7 introduced some obscure bug that's freezing AMD systems.
The only 6.7 AMD issue (feature) I'm aware of is the amdgpu patch that gets the tdp limits from the vbios so you can't undervolt as much vs older kernels.
It's not that widespread as far as I can tell. I gave details elsewhere and included a few other places where people were reporting it. Not sure if it's tied to AMD GPUs, AMD CPUs, etc., but the common thread is that everyone I saw reporting it was using AMD.
Which AMD systems? I've got a Zen 2, Zen 3+ and a Zen 4 and haven't experienced any freezing with 6.7.
Ryzen 5 2600X w/ an RX580.
I detailed the issue here. Very persistent and tricky issue to track since there's no reproducible steps and it generates no errors. Happens under zero load, full load, after 5 minutes, 2 hours... it's about as random and as you can get. And yes, RAM is fine.

I can't use 6.7 because of Microsoft of all reasons. https://github.com/microsoft/mssql-docker/issues/868
