The announced version 3.3 of the Linux kernel has become reality. The news comes from the same Linus Torvalds, who presented it to the world has also described the news and also the platform implementations on Android , finally reunited in the mainline kernel after 2 years of 'exile':
Several features of Android and subsystems have already been built, and more will follow in the future. This will make things easier for everyone, including the independent Android developer community , or who want to support Linux distributions Android programs .
What's more, with version 3.3 of the kernel has also come support the new architecture of Texas Instruments C6x , and has been completely redesigned and balanced the possibility of having different profiles more evenly RAID in Btrfs.
Over Android has been added, even in the mainstream software Open vswitch , a useful program for the management of advanced networking that supports virtualization of more complex scenarios of 'old' Bridge Linux kernel used in the past. Regarding the management of the network will instead provide the Network priority control group , an interface that allows the administrator to dynamically set the priority of network traffic produced by different applications.
We report also some improvement in support Exynos chipset and Ivy Bridge , in addition to the Nouveau driver used by Nvidia , all of which will be further integrated in the Linux 3.4 kernel on which several teams are already at work.
