Linux Kernel 6.10 Released — Rust Bindings Expand, ARM64 Performance Overhauled

Linus Torvalds announced the release of Linux 6.10 this afternoon, marking a landmark moment for the kernel's gradual embrace of Rust as a second systems language. The new version ships expanded Rust bindings across subsystems including networking and block layers, a redesigned CFS scheduler reducing tail-latency by up to 18% on multi-core ARM64 servers, and a new unified firmware loading interface that simplifies driver development across architectures.
