kernel.org的"Latest Stable Kernel"为什么版本号和mainline相同了?不应该是和stable相同吗?

mainline属于stable，每一个stable都是或者曾经是mainline。

As kernels move from the "mainline" into the "stable" category, two things can happen:

They can reach "End of Life" after a few bugfix revisions, which means that kernel maintainers will release no more bugfixes for this kernel version, or
They can be put into "longterm" maintenance, which means that maintainers will provide bugfixes for this kernel revision for a much longer period of time.

这段话作何理解?
而且我记得以前"Latest Stable Kernel"和"stable"的版本号是相同,"mainline"则高于"Latest Stable Kernel"
难道是我记错了?

我一直印象是mainline->stable,这也符合FAQ中的描述.

把 'kernel' 换成 'debian'

As a new debian release move from the "testing" into the "stable" category, two things can happen:
They can reach "End of Life" after a few point releases, which means that debian maintainers will release no more bugfixes for this debian version, or
They can be put into "LTS" maintenance, which means that the debian LTS team will provide bugfixes for this debian revision for a much longer period of time.

而且我记得以前"Latest Stable Kernel"和"stable"的版本号是相同,"mainline"则高于"Latest Stable Kernel"
难道是我记错了?

可能是 Linux 4.6 刚发布没几天的缘故
等一段时间 4.6 的后续 point release 发布后再回来看看？

我理解错了
您的问题是 - 黄色大按钮中 Latest Stable Kernel:4.6
但下方列表中 标有 stable 字样的最新为 4.5.5
是这样么？
