Version 6.11.0-rc3 2022-08-06
Important: The Linux Community has deprecated reiserfs, and has scheduled it to be removed from the kernel in 2025.
Improvements
Spin down for non-rotational devices now places those devices in standby mode if supported by the device. Similarly, spin up, or any I/O to the device will restore normal operation.
Display NVMe device capabilities obtained from SMART info.
Added necessary kernel CONFIG options to support Sr-iov with mellanox connectx4+ cards
Bug fixes
Quit trying to spin down devices which do not support standby mode.
Fixed AD join issued caused by outdated cyras-sasl library
Do not start mcelog daemon if CPU is unsupported (most AMD processors).
