Linux Kernel 4.8 正式版发布
欢迎加入运维网交流群：263444886Linux Kernel 4.8 正式版发布了。
Linux是一个宏内核（monolithic kernel）系统。设备驱动程序可以完全访问硬件。Linux内的设备驱动程序可以方便地以模块化（modularize）的形式设置，并在系统运行期间可直接装载或卸载。
更新内容：
[*] Checker incorporates some address-space checks normally performed separately with the sparse tool.
[*] Colorize simply adds color to some diagnostic output.
[*] Constify makes structures containing only function pointers const.
[*] Initify moves string constants that are only referenced in __init or __exit functions to the appropriate ELF sections.
[*]
Kallocstat generates information on>
[*] Kernexec is there to "to make KERNEXEC/amd64 almost as good as it is on i386"; it ensures that, for example, user-space pages are not executable by the kernel.
[*] Latent_entropy tries to generate entropy (randomness) from the kernel's execution; more on this one below.
[*] Randomize_layout reorganizes structure layout randomly.
[*] Rap implements grsecurity's "return address protection" mechanism, described in this presentation .
[*] Size_overflow (described on this page) detects some integer overflows.
[*] Stackleak tracks kernel-stack usage so that the stack can be cleared on return to user space.
[*] Structleak forcibly clears structure fields if they might be copied to user space.
