New Long Term Stable Initiative (LTSI) Linux Kernel Released
Quote:
LTSI Kernel Maintainer Greg Kroah-Hartman has released the latest version of LTSI Kernel (3.0.79-LTSI and 3.4.46-LTSI) on May 21.
The followings are the changes that have been merged for each release.
3.0.79-LTSI:
• Update to 3.0.79 kernel release
• New kzm9g board-specific patches
• Updated documentation
3.4.46-LTSI:
• Update to 3.4.46
• Updated documentation
• af_bus Kconfig dependancy fixed
• armadillo800 patches added
• Clock bugfix
• USB gadget fixes
• lttng bugfixes
• shmobile fixes
• marzen i2c and sata support added
• arm smp updates
• irqchip patches added
With these releases, a large amount of upstream bug/security fixes have been applied (1,368 with 3.0,79-LTSI; 944 with 3.4.46-LTSI). This should result in a dramatic reduction of in-house maintenance costs for the companies who use LTSI Kernel.
In addition to the back port of bug/security fixes, LTSI has many patch collections now that are not merged and can be very useful and easy to apply to products.
