Much have been made of the new kernel patching infrastructure, but realistically […] we’ve had much bigger changes in other versions. So this is very much a “solid code progress” release.” - -Linus adds that Linux 4.1 is likely to be a ‘bigger release’. - -### New Linux Kernel 4.0 Features ### - -Install Kernel Updates Without Rebooting - -If you’ve ever been put out by the need to reboot your Linux box to finish installing a kernel update you won’t be alone. It’s a minor inconvenience on the desktop, and a major one for servers. - -![Reboot-free Kernel Updates](http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2012/10/update.jpg) -Reboot-free Kernel Updates - -The ability to install/apply security patches to the Linux kernel “live”, without the need to reboot, has been a long-held want of many Linux enthusiasts for years. - -A slew of third-party projects, like [Oracle’s KSplice][2] and Red Hat’s Kpatch, have sought to offer live patching functionality for certain distributions. - -For servers, enterprise and mission-critical use cases where uptime is priority live kernel patching is a pretty big deal. - -The good news is that Linux 4.0 makes having to reboot to complete a kernel update a thing of the past. - -Well, almost. - -The initial groundwork to support reboot-free patching arrives in this latest release, ready for experienced sysadmins to take advantage of in Linux 4.0. - -Desktop Linux distributions should also be able to take advantage of the feature too (though given the complexity involved in configuring the reboot-less functionality on the end-user side it may be a little way off). - -This infrastructure will continue to be refined and improved on over the course of the 4.x series. As it does so I expect we’ll all start to hear more about it. - -#### Other Changes #### - -Although it is considered a small release the latest Linux kernel manages to squeeze in a welcome set of hardware improvements, new drivers and performance tweaks. These include: - - -- Improvements to Intel ‘Skylake’ platform -- Intel Quark SoC support -- Various patches to improve Linux running on a Playstation 3 -- TOpen-source AMD Radeon driver supports DisplayPort Audio -- Various misc HID driver tweaks, including Lenovo compact keyboards, Wacom Cintiq 27QHD -- Toshiba power settings driver adds USB sleep/charge functionality, rapid charge, sleep w/ music, etc -- File System tweaks, including F2FS, BtrfFS, etc - -### Install Linux Kernel 4.0 on Ubuntu ### - -Although classed as stable there is, at present, **no need for desktop users or new-comers to go upgrade**. - -The impatient and adept can take a crack at installing Linux 4.0 in Ubuntu 15.04 Beta by grabbing the appropriate set of packages from [Canonical’s mainline kernel archive][3] or by risking a third-party PPA hosted on Launchpad. - -Ubuntu 15.04 Vivid Vervet is due later this month and will ship with Ubuntu Kernel 3.19 (the Ubuntu kernel is the Linux Kernel plus Ubuntu-specific patches that have not been accepted upstream). - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -via: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2015/04/linux-kernel-4-0-new-features - -作者：[Joey-Elijah Sneddon][a] -译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) -校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) - -本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创翻译，[Linux中国](http://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 - -[a]:https://plus.google.com/117485690627814051450/?rel=author -[1]:https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/4/12/178 -[2]:http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2009/10/how-to-install-kernel-updates-without-rebooting -[3]:http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=N;O=D
