Linux Kernel 3.12 to Be Supported Until 2017 Because of SUSE Linux Enterprise 12
==================================================================================
>Linux kernel developer Jiri Slaby has announced the release of the fifty-eighth maintenance build of the long-term supported Linux 3.12 kernel series, as well as a modification to its EOL status.
Linux kernel 3.12.58 LTS is now available, and those running it on their Linux kernel-based operating system must update as soon as possible. And the good news is that the Linux 3.12 branch is here to stay for one more year, until 2017, because SUSE Linux Enterprise (SLE) 12 Service Pack 1 is based on it.
"Since SLE12-SP1 is based upon 3.12 and its EOL is in 2017, move the EOL of 3.12 to 2017 too," said Jiri Slaby in a [patch announcement][1] sent to one of Linux kernel's mailing lists, where he has also revealed the "end of life" statuses for other kernel branches, such as August 2016 for Linux 3.14, January 2017 for Linux 3.18, or September 2017 for Linux 4.1.
### What's new in Linux kernel 3.12.58 LTS
If you're wondering what's new in Linux kernel 3.12.58 LTS, we can tell you that, according to the [appended shortlog][2], it is a pretty healthy update that changes a total of 114 files, with 835 insertions and 298 deletions. Among the changes, we can notice the usual sound and networking stack improvements, and many updated drivers.
There are also multiple improvements to the x86 hardware architecture, along with small fixes for the Xtensa and s390 ones. Filesystems like NFS, OCFS2, Btrfs, JBD2, and XFS have also received various fixes, and among the updated drivers, we can mention USB, Xen, MD, MTD, media, SCSI, TTY, networking, ATA, Bluetooth, hwmon, EDAC, and CPUFreq.
As usual, you can [download the Linux kernel 3.12.58 LTS sources][3] right now via our website or directly from kernel.org. Please update your GNU/Linux operating system as soon as possible if it is powered by a kernel from the Linux 3.12 series.

因 SUSE Linux Enterprise 12Linux Kernel 3.12 的支持延长至 2017 年
==================================================================================
>Linux 内核开发者 Jiri Slaby 已经宣布了 Linux 3.12 系列内核的第 58 个长期支持维护版本,以及关于生命周期状态的一些修改。
Linux Kernel 3.12.58 LTS长期支持版已经可用那些运行该版本内核的 Linux 操作系统应尽快升级。有个好消息是 Linux 3.12 分支的支持将延长一年至 2017 年,因为 SUSE Linux Enterprise (SLE) 12 Service Pack 1 正是基于该分支。
“因为 SLE12-SP1 基于 3.12 之上,并且它的生命周期持续到 2017 年,所以将 3.12 的生命周期结束也修改到 2017 年”Jiri Slaby 在发到 Linux 内核邮件列表的一个[补丁声明][1]中说道同时他还公布了其它内核分支的生命周期结束时间EOLend of life比如 Linux 3.14 为 2016 年 8 月Linux 3.18 为 2017 年 1 月Linux 4.1 是 2017 年 9 月。
### Linux kernel 3.12.58 LTS 改动

更新中还有多个对 x86 硬件架构的改进,以及一些对 Xtensa 和 s390 的小修复。文件系统,如 NFSOCFS2BtrfsJBD2 还有 XFS 也都收到了不同的修复,在驱动的更新中可以提到的还有 USBXenMDMTD媒体SCSITTY网络ATA蓝牙hwmonEDAC 以及 CPUFreq。
和往常一样你现在就可以从我们网站linux.com或直接从 kernel.org [下载 Linux kernel 3.12.58 LTS 的源码][3]。如果您的 GNU/Linux 操作系统运行的是 Linux 3.12 系列内核,请尽快升级您的内核。
