Kernel 4.18 chega ao Debian Unstable

Confira nessa matéria algumas novidades do Linux® 4.18 e como o instalar no seu Debian Unstable ou Testing híbrido.











Kernel 


Em computação, o núcleo ou kernel é o componente central do sistema operativo da maioria dos computadores; ele serve de ponte entre aplicativos e o processamento real de dados feito a nível de hardware. As responsabilidades do núcleo incluem gerenciar os recursos do sistema (a comunicação entre componentes de hardware e software).Geralmente como um componente básico do sistema operativo, um núcleo pode oferecer a camada de abstração de nível mais baixo para os recursos (especialmente processadores e dispositivos de entrada/saída) que softwares aplicativos devem controlar para realizar sua função. Ele tipicamente torna estas facilidades disponíveis para os processos de aplicativos através de mecanismos de comunicação entre processos e chamadas de sistema.

Tarefas de sistemas operativos são feitas de maneiras diferentes por núcleos diferentes, dependendo do seu desenho e abordagem. Enquanto núcleos monolíticos tentam alcançar seus objetivos executando todos os códigos de sistema no mesmo espaço de endereçamento para aumentar a performance do sistema, micronúcleos executam a maioria dos serviços do sistema no espaço de usuário como servidores, buscando melhorar a manutenção e a modularidade do sistema operativo.

Novidades do Linux® (kernel) 4.18

Subject Linux 4.18

One week late(r) and here we are - 4.18 is out there.

It was a very calm week, and arguably I could just have released on
schedule last week, but we did have some minor updates. Mostly
networking, but some vfs race fixes (mentioned in the rc8 announment
as "pending") and a couple of driver fixes (scsi, networking, i2c).
Some other minor random things (arm crypto fix, parisc memory ordering
fix). Shortlog appended for the (few) details.

Some of these I was almost ready to just delay to until the next merge
window, but they were marked for stable anyway, so it would just have
caused more backporting. The vfs fixes are for old races that are
really hard to hit (which is obviously why they are old and weren't
noticed earlier). Some of them _have_ been seen in real life, some of
them probably need explicit help to ever trigger (ie artificial delays
just to show that "yes, this can actually happen in theory").

Anyway, with this, the merge window for 4.19 is obviously open, and
I'll start pulling tomorrow. I already have a couple of dozen pull
requests pending due to the one-week delay of 4.18, but keep them
coming.

Instalação


Você pode aguardar a chegada no Debian Testing  o que deve ocorrer nos próximos dias, ou atualizar pelo Debian Unstable agora mesmo.

Antes você deve ter o seu sistema híbrido, para isso siga os passos dos links abaixo.


Para quem usa só o free.

Aprenda usar o Debian testing hibrido free.



Para quem habilitou o contrib non-free.

Aprenda usar o Debian testing hibrido contrib non-free.



Para instalar o kernel 4.18 de o comando de acordo com a sua arquitetura.

amd64

sudo apt install linux-image-4.18.0-1-amd64 linux-headers-4.18.0-1-amd64

i386

sudo apt install linux-image-4.18.0-1-686 linux-headers-4.18.0-1-686



Linux® 4.18.0-1 instalado.


O que me chamou a atenção é o baixo consumo de memória Ram e principalmente sem os problemas que tive no 4.17.
