Linus Torvalds has released the latest version of the “stable” Linux kernel, version 2.6.25, which includes changes to Wi-Fi support, virtualization, real-time scheduling and file systems.
The kernel, which was released approximately 10 weeks after its predecessor, includes an updated KVM x86 emulator with more instructions and components, designed to improve performance and compatibility. Virtual prototyping platforms framework Virtio has also been updated, while paravirt_ops now works on the x86-64 architecture.
