Official support Linux kernel will be moved to v6.6
StarFive plans to gradually migrate the maintenance focus of the Linux kernel from v6.1 to v6.6 in the next period, which is expected to be completed by May. By then, StarFive’s officially maintained Linux kernel versions will be v5.15 and v6.6.
Linux kernel v6.6 is the latest upstream long-term support release, With StarFive’s continuous efforts in the past period, most of the JH-7110 drivers have been merged into the Linux kernel v6.6.Therefore, in newer upstream kernels, there is more support for JH-7110 which reduces the number of downstream-relevant driver patches and maintenance workload.
