The latest version of this branch of the stable Linux kernel, 3.10.40, has been announced by Greg Kroah-Hartman, marking yet another update in the most recent stable release.

The amount of changes and fixes for this branch of the Linux kernel is large, considering the build number. This is, after all, an LTS release and it has been around for quite some time. There is no sign that the maintenance for 3.10.x is stopping anytime soon, so you should make the best of it.

“I'm announcing the release of the 3.10.40 kernel. All users of the 3.10 kernel series must upgrade.”

“The updated 3.10.y git tree can be found at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git linux-3.10.y and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git;a=summary,” Greg Kroah-Hartman said in the email announcement.

If you are using any of the versions released until now in the Linux kernel 3.10.x branch, you should consider an update to this build. You can also upgrade to one of the newer Linux kernel versions available right now, although some of them don't have an LTS status.

A complete list of commits in this branch of the kernel can be found in the official announcement. You can download Linux kernel 3.10.40 right now from Softpedia.
