'Merge window from Hell' opens as Linus Torvalds reveals Linux 6.1
Each release of the Linux kernel is followed by two weeks in which contributors submit code they'd like to see in the next version. The release of Linux 6.1 today means that window closes on December 26 – the day after a certain popular holiday.
Torvalds today revealed that he's travelling ahead of that holiday, so has even less time than usual to tee up the next cut of the kernel."I want to re-iterate that I'm going to be pretty strict about the merge window rules," he wrote."The rules are that the pull requests sent to me during the merge window should have been ready _before_ the merge window, and have seen some time in Linux-next.
Linux-next is the staging area the kernel dev team uses to queue up code that has been flagged as destined for the next kernel release, and therefore gets some attention before the merge window commences. "So if you already realize that work hasn't been in Linux-next, let's just all agree to not even send me the pull request at all, and we'll all be happy with the calm end-of-the-year season. Ok?" Torvalds wrote.
