The Linux kernel series has finally reached its first decimal point (5.0.1), and it is now ready to be adopted by any Linux user or GNU / Linux distribution. Linus Torvalds only released Linux Kernel 5.0on March 4th, so this time Point Release came quite quickly. As a "milestone" with moderate functionality, version 5.0 kernel mainly includes support for AMD Radeon GPU's FreeSync, Btrfs file system exchange files, Adiantum file system encryption for low-power devices, and improved energy management of ARM big.LITTLE processors.

­Linux Kernel 5.0also adds support for the binderfs file system, which enables the device to run multiple Android instances, supports the user Datagram (UDP) protocol for universal receive offload (GRO) functionality, and supports cpuset resources for controllers in cgroupv2.

­now, the first "point release" version of Linux Kernel (5.0.1) has arrived, which means that the new kernel is ready for large-scale adoption. "with the release of Linux Kernel 5.0.1, all Linux Kernel 5.0 kernel users should be updated as soon as possible," Greg Kroah-Hartman said.

­5.0.y git trees can be obtained in the following ways or by moving to the Kernel.org official website:

­git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git linux-5.0.y

­if you want to compile the Linux 5.0.1 kernel for your own architecture and Linux-based operating systems, you can download it now from the Kernel.org website.

­in addition, your favorite GNU / Linux distributions will soon push updated versions to their respective software repositories.

­as a maintenance update, Linux Kernel 5.0.1 changed only 53 files, including 520 inserts and 234 deletions.

­Tech-savvy friends can refer to Greg Kroah-Hartman 's mailing list with a detailed change log.
