笔记本的支持得到了提升，服务器性能得到了改进，更多内容一一揭晓。 + +又到了迎接 Linux 内核新版本发布的时刻！ + +Linux 内核 6.6 的发布，是一次大规模更新，针对各类笔记本、网络硬件、处理器等提供了**大量全方位的改良**。 + +Linus Torvalds [表示][1]： + +> 各种各样的修复散布各处，除了针对 r8152 驱动的一些重要修复外，其它的都相当小型。下面是上周的简短日志，供所有想要一探究竟、了解更多细节的读者。日志篇幅短小，可以快速翻阅。 + +### 🆕 Linux 内核 6.6：都有哪些新元素？ + +在我们开始之前，需要提醒大家，这一次发布的是**非长期支持版本**，因此不是每个人都必须进行升级，除非你想要享受最新、最棒的版本。 + +总的来说，让我们来看看这次发布版本的亮点： + +* 针对英特尔芯片的优化 +* 对笔记本的更佳支持 +* 网络改进 +* AMD 芯片性能提升 + +#### 针对英特尔芯片的优化 + +![][3] + +Linux 内核 6.6 版本新增了对英特尔的**神经处理单元（NPU）**的**支持**，这样的技术原先被称作通用处理器。 + +这项技术预计将于今年晚些时候，随着英特尔的“[Meteor Lake][4]”芯片亮相而首次公开登场。这些 **NPU 将被专门用于处理人工智能工作负载**。 + +英特尔甚至已经开始对即将发布的 “**Arrow Lake**”芯片进行**NPU 支持的初步工作**了！ + +此外，还新增了对英特尔的 [Shadow Stack][5] 的支持，因为他们的 [控制流执行技术][6]（CET）被引入到了内核中。其主要目的是防止现代英特尔 CPU（从 Tiger Lake 起）上的**返回导向编程（ROP）攻击**。 + +#### 对笔记本的更佳支持 + +![][8] + +**对于惠普笔记本，现在你可以直接在 Linux 中对 BIOS 进行管理了**，这要归功于 “**HP-BIOSCFG**” 驱动的实现。 + +根据报道，**从 2018 年起出产的惠普笔记本应该都可以支持这个驱动程序**。 + +**对于联想笔记本，驱动程序已经更新，为更多的 IdeaPad 笔记本**添加了键盘背光控制**。 + +同样，**对于华硕笔记本**，现在 [ROG Flow X16][9]（2023 年款）游戏笔记本，当屏幕翻转时可以**正确地启用平板模式**。 + +#### 网络改进 + +![][10] + +在网络方面，Linux 内核 6.6 版本带来了对如 [Atheros QCA8081][11]、**MediaTek MT7988**、**MediaTek MT7981**，[NXP TJA1120 PHY][12] 等新型硬件的**支持**。 + +同时，各类驱动程序也进行了升级，例如 **高通 Wi-Fi 7 （ath12k）驱动程序**，它现在**支持 Extremely High Throughput（EHT）PHY**。 + +此外，针对各类 Realtek（rtl8xxxu）Wi-Fi 芯片**启用了 AP 模式**。 + +关于特定于网络的变动，你可以在这个 [拉取请求][13] 中查阅更多的详细信息。 + +#### AMD 芯片的性能提升 + +![][14] + +随着 Linux 内核 6.6 的发布，AMD 的开发人员推出了**两项尚未正式公开的新技术的支持**。 + +一项技术是对他们即将推出的 “**FreeSync Panel Replay**” 技术的支持，这一技术只用于游戏笔记本抖动屏，可以自动降低刷新率以节省电力和降低 GPU 工作负载。 + +另一项技术被称为 “**动态提速控制**”，这是一项能够**提高某些 Ryzen SoC 性能的功能**，但关于它的更多细节比较少。 + +关于它的实施，你可以在这个 [补丁序列][15] 中查阅更多的信息。 + +#### 🛠️ 其他的变化与改进 + +其他方面，还包括一些值得注意的变动： + +* 针对 **龙芯** 的大量新特性。 +* **Rust 工具链** 升级至 v1.71.1 版本。 +* 对 **RISC-V** 和 **Btrfs** 的多项改进。 +* 完全移除了 [无线 USB][16] 和 [**Ultra-Wideband**][17] 的代码。 +* 对 **英伟达**、**英特尔** 和 **AMD** 的**开源图形驱动程序** 的众多优化。 + +你可以在 [更新日志][18] 中查阅更详细的信息。 + +### 安装 Linux 内核 6.6 版本 + +如果你的体验是像 Arch 或 Fedora 那类的滚动发行版，升级过程非常简单。 + +你只需要稍等片刻，因为这些发行版在发布更新时需要一些时间。 + +对于其他的用户，你可以等待主要版本更新，或者**根据我们的指南在 Ubuntu 中升级至最新的主线 Linux 内核**： + +> **[在 Ubuntu 上安装最新的主线 Linux 内核][19]** + +你可以在 [官方网站][20] 下载最新的 Linux 内核的 tarball （_发布后可能需要些时间才能得到_）。 + +💬 你对这次内核发布有何想法？ +

-More details on networking-specific changes can be found in the [pull request][13]. - -### AMD Enhancements - -![][14] - -With the Linux kernel 6.6 release, AMD developers have pushed **support for two new pieces of technology** that they have yet to officially announce. - -One is support for their upcoming “ **FreeSync Panel Replay** ” technology for gaming displays (laptops only) that would automatically decrease the refresh rate to save on power and reduce GPU workload. - -The other is called “ **Dynamic boost control** ” that is a **performance** **improving feature for some Ryzen SoCs** , details about it are quite slim. - -More on its implementation can be found in the [patch series][15]. - -### 🛠️ Other Changes & Improvements - -As for the rest, here are some other notable changes: - - * Loads of new features for **LoongArch**. - * The **Rust toolchain** was upgraded to v1.71.1. - * Various improvements for **RISC-V** and **Btrfs**. - * Complete removal of [**Wireless USB**][16] and [**Ultra-Wideband**][17] code. - * Many improvements for **open-source graphics drivers** for **Nvidia** , **Intel** , and **AMD**. - - - -You can go through the [changelog][18] for more details. - -## Installing Linux Kernel 6.6 - -If you are running rolling-release distros such as Arch or Fedora, then it is quite straightforward to upgrade. - -You just have to wait a bit, as these distros take their time in releasing the update. - -As for the rest, you can either wait for a major release, or **upgrade to the latest mainline Linux kernel in Ubuntu** by following our guide: - -![][19] - -You can download the tarball for the latest Linux kernel from its [official website][20] ( _it takes time for it to be available after release_ ). -
