Linux 5.18-rc2 has been released as the latest weekly release candidate for the Linux Kernel .
This week's Linux kernel brings a number of bug/regression fixes, one of the more notable patches is an attempt to initialize /dev/urandom reads , which means that random number computations on /dev/urandom become safe, at least on x86, Other architectures with duty cycle counters will also become safe.
Also, most of the updates are still around drivers, AMD GPU driver fixes are probably the most obvious, there are also some network, scsi, rdma, block, etc. modifications. There are also some filesystem fixes, the usual architects of the core network, and daily tool updates, self-tests, and performance improvements.
