Uma atualização proposta para o agendador do Linux visa reduzir problemas de tempo de quadro em computadores mais antigos durante cargas intensas de CPU.
O desenvolvedor do kernel Linux, Peter Zijlstra, publicou a segunda versão de uma série de patches intitulada "sched: Flatten the pick". Ela aborda problemas no agendamento de cgroups em que os pesos dos grupos de tarefas se fragmentam entre as CPUs, levando a uma prioridade menor em sistemas multi-core.
Developers have released Linux kernel 7.0, featuring improvements for Intel and AMD hardware, enhanced storage handling, and the removal of the experimental label from Rust support. Linus Torvalds announced the update, which is not a long-term support version. The release includes preparations for upcoming CPUs and GPUs, alongside self-healing filesystem capabilities.
