Yes, it’s really -rc3, because I’m skipping -rc2 entirely.
Or not “entirely”. As too many people pointed out, I had been somewhat less than careful, and the 2.6.32-rc1 release actually called itself -rc2 in the Makefile. As a result, I don’t want to make a 2.6.32-rc2 release, since any bug-reports etc would then be met with the inevitable confusion: do you mean -rc2 as in the Makefile (ie really -rc1) or -rc2 as in the tagged release.
So I’m avoiding that confusion entirely, and consider the -rc1 release to have also been -rc2, and thus a week later we’re now at -rc3. And let’s hope that I won’t have that particular “senior moment” any more. Although I’m sure I can screw up releases some other way.
Anyway. On to the actual changes. It’s actually been fairly calm, although I’m not sure exactly why. Regardless, I’m not going to complain, or look the gift horse in the mouth. The shortlog is appended (quite often, the -rc2 shortlogs are still big enough that I skip them).
The biggest change in the diff is the e1000 network driver update, but the bulk of that is actually just whitespace changes thanks to running it through lindent along with dropping dead PCIe code (the PCIe support is in the e1000e driver).
Apart from that single driver update (which is almost 60% of the diffs), there’s a fair number of one-liners, but also some DRM updates (mainly the experimental radeon driver but also a capability to specify modes etc), some pcmcia and serial updates, ext4 and btrfs, etc. With a smattering of ACPI, sound and network code to fill in the cracks.
The appended shortlog probably gives a reasonable view into it, but one thing that might be worth mention (despite being fairly small) is that there’s been some IO latency tweaking in the block layer (CFS scheduler). I’m hoping that ends up being one of those noticeable things, where people might actually notice better responsiveness. Give it a try.
