    Linux 6.13 Released With AutoFDO + Propeller, AMD Changes & Broader Apple Support

    Phoronix: Linux 6.13 Released With AutoFDO + Propeller, AMD Changes & Broader Apple Support

    As anticipated the Linux 6.13 kernel was promoted to stable today with an on-time release and in turn also marking the start of the Linux 6.14 merge window. Linux 6.13 stable has plenty of fine features for this first major kernel release of 2025...

    Some kind of performance benchmark between 6.x kernels on recent 10th - 14th gen Intel or Ryzen 5000 - 9000 would be interesting.

      Are you talking cross-CPU and cross-kernel version comparison or what to better clarify?

        With this, the merge window for 6.14 will obviously open tomorrow. I already have two dozen pull requests pending - thank you, you know who
        you are.
        I hope there are some bcachefs changes queued up. I was playing with some performance testing on NVMe this weekend between ZFS (with and without Direct IO), btrfs, and bcachefs (along with ext4 / XFS / f2fs for good measure). A ~53TB tiered pool on bcachefs with 2x 4TB NVMe + 4x 14TB HDD wasn't looking too bad.

          Linux kernel developers: *add more goodies for 6.13 and 6.14*
          Debian stable maintainers: *slip in a 12.10 before 13.0 so that pesky 6.12 is delayed even more*
          [I know, it's debian stable, i'm being ironic, please don't reply to point out "It's called stable for a reason" ]

            Yes, morons, idiots, etc.
            If you find something meaningful to do with your life you may become less hateful and sad. You should try it.

              I think both, all generations over some kernel releases. What makes sense is LTSes (6.1, 6.6, 6.12) plus the kernels selected for the last two rhels, suse wtv.

              In any case, I'm betting in some improvements (up to 3%) in I/O, context switch related stuff, some drops (up to 3%) on some random stuff and 95% of tests showing no change. Which is good all around.

                Nothing was "slipped in". The freeze hasn't even started yet.

                  6.14 will be a good release for me. I hope that NVIDIA is also able to release v570 driver.
