Linus Torvalds announced the final release of Linux Kernel 6.13, marking the end of its development cycle. As expected, the past week saw the completion of minor changes, primarily driver fixes related to GPU and networking, alongside documentation updates and other adjustments.
Torvalds mentioned that no significant issues occurred during the final stages, enabling him to tag and push the release seamlessly.
Major updates include optimizations for AMD and NVIDIA GPUs, networking enhancements, memory management fixes, and improved ACPI handling.
Kernel 6.13 includes an extensive changelog encompassing fixes for graphics drivers (AMD and NVIDIA), enhanced networking support, improved ACPI handling, and bug fixes in memory management, among others.
Work now shifts toward the Linux kernal 6.14 release, with the merge window opening today, January 20, 2025. Early submissions are already in from numerous contributors worldwide, indicating an active start to the next development phase.
Linus Torvalds confirmed the Linux 6.13 release in an email to the Linux Kernel Mailing List (LKML), “nothing horrible or unexpected happened last week, so I’ve tagged and pushed out the final 6.13 release.”
As Torvalds remarked, “The bulk of the fixes are drivers, as usual. Networking and GPU updates dominate, but there’s a smattering of fixes elsewhere too.”
Guitar Pedal Giveaway and Final Notes
As a lighthearted addition, Torvalds also revisited last week’s RC7 announcement about his “guitar pedal” raffle. Initially planning to award one winner, he selected five due to a last-minute spree of acquiring additional kits.
The winners Bartosz Golaszewski, Jeff Xie, Bence Csókás, Mathieu Desnoyers, and John Hubbard will receive their prizes after an anticipated delay owing to the merge window and Torvalds’ upcoming travel commitments.
Torvalds also reminded winners to rely only on email for communication, cautioning them against potential scammers on social media platforms. With Linux kernal 6.13 now officially released, the developer community eagerly anticipates the innovations and fixes to come in version 6.14.
