• Final release for the 7.2 stable series

    From LWN.net@86:200/23 to All on Mon Nov 2 06:40:10 2026

    Greg Kroah-Hartman has announced the release of the
    7.2.15 kernel, with a handful of updates.

    Note, this is the LAST 7.2.y kernel release. After this one the 7.2.y kernel tree is end-of-life. Please move to 7.3.y at this time.

    And yes, you aren't imagining things, this one went "end-of-life" a bit sooner than normal. But based on the release cycle at the moment, and the number of pending cc: stable patches in the queue, I figured it was better this way so we can focus on the latest 7.3.y release as it would require us to keep 8 different branches alive at the same moment, a taxing task under the best of times.
