The 5.9 kernel has been released

Linus has released the 5.9 kernel."Ok, so I'll be honest - I had hoped for quite a bit fewer changesthis last week, but at the same time there doesn't really seem to beanything particularly scary in here. It's just more commits and more lineschanged than I would have wished for."Some of the significant features in this release are:x86 FSGSBASE support,capacity awareness in the deadlinescheduler,the close_range() system call,proactive compaction in thememory-management subsystem,the rationalization of kernel-threadpriorities, and more.See the KernelNewbies 5.9page for more details.
