This news was shared by Linus Torvalds with the announcement of Linux 4.9-rc2. Well, the wait is finally over as <a href=\"https:\/\/lwn.net\/Articles\/708766\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Linux 4.9 is here <\/a>in all its glory.<\/p>\n<p>In the announcement post, once again Torvalds\u00a0talked about the number of lines of kernel code. This is due to some specific issues like lots of code from AMD GPU register definition files. A lot of lines also comes from &#8220;greybus&#8221;, the portion of Google Project Ara code that managed to slip into this release.<\/p>\n<p>Breaking down, two third of Linux 4.9 code consists of drivers. Rest are arch updates, documentation, generic networking, and filesystems.<\/p>\n<h2>Brief\u00a0feature overview &#8212; Linux kernel 4.9<\/h2>\n<p>Apart from a couple of additions mentioned above, the significant features shipping with Linux kernel 4.9 are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Intel DRM fixes<\/li>\n<li>Better Raspberry Pi Zero support &amp; other 28 ARM devices<\/li>\n<li>Better security, thanks to Vmapped\u00a0stacks<\/li>\n<li>Memory protection keys implementation<\/li>\n<li>Filesystem improvements<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The release of version 4.9 automatically opens the merge window for kernel 4.10. However, due to Christmas weekend, it&#8217;ll be shorter than usual. &#8220;I will certainly stop pulling on the 23rd at the latest, and if I get roped into xmas food prep, even that date might be questionable,&#8221; Torvalds added.<\/p>\n<p>Read the complete Linux kernel 4.9 release announcement <a href=\"https:\/\/lwn.net\/Articles\/708766\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">here<\/a>.
