The 4.13 kernel is out

Linus has released the 4.13 kernel, right on schedule.Headline features in this release includekernel hardening via structure layoutrandomization,native TLS protocol support,better huge-page swapping,improved handling of writeback errors,better asynchronous I/O support,better power management via next-interruptprediction,the elimination of the DocBook toolchain for formatted documentation,and more. There is one other change that is called out explicitly in theannouncement: "The change in question is simply changing the default cifs behavior:instead of defaulting to SMB 1.0 (which you really should not use:just google for 'stop using SMB1' or similar), the default cifs mountnow defaults to a rather more modern SMB 3.0."
