Linux kernel maintainers have extended long-term support (LTS) for several key releases through 2026-2028, partially reversing a 2023 decision to limit support to two years amid contributor burnout. Stable maintainer Greg Kroah-Hartman updated the schedule following feedback from users, vendors, and fellow maintainer Sasha Levin, providing more time for security fixes in servers, Android devices, and appliances.

The Linux kernel project has officially documented its policy on AI-assisted code contributions with the release of Linux 7.0. The guidelines require human accountability, disclosure of AI tool use, and a new 'Assisted-by' tag for patches involving AI. Sasha Levin formalized the consensus reached at the 2025 Maintainers Summit.
