Oracle Rolls Out UEK-Next Kernel Based On Linux 6.9

([Oracle] 3 Hours Ago UEK-Next With Linux 6.9)


Oracle today published their newest release of UEK-Next, their forward-looking version of the " [1]Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel " targeting Oracle Linux users.

In addition to being based off the Linux 6.9 upstream, UEK-Next continues to carry select out-of-tree patches like the "sched_ext" pluggable scheduling framework. [2]Sched_ext should be upstreamed in Linux 6.11 while for the v6.9 UEK-derived kernel the patches are being carried by Oracle.

Oracle is also already talking up their UEK-Next that will soon shift to the Linux 6.10 upstream and contain XFS online file-system repair functionality.

More details on the UEK-Next release re-based to Linux 6.9 can be found via the [3]Oracle Linux blog .

You too can get rich quick by translating an existing Linux
distribution into one of the following untapped markets:

- Babylonian
- Hittite
- Ancient Egyptian (hieroglyphics may be a challenge, though)
- Pig Latin (this may be the strongest type of encryption allowed by the
DOJ in the near future)
- Mayan
- Cherokee
- Cyrillic (to take advantage of the booming Russian economy)
- Redneck
- Klingon (it's a wonder this hasn't been done yet)
- Wingdings

Once you start marketing your new product, a highly lucrative
self-underwritten IPO is just months away!
