No, the versioning scheme is that the first two numbers are the major version. From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_kernel_version_history https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_kernel_version_history : > Each major version – identified by the first two numbers of a release version For the last decade, the first number gets bumped once the second number reaches 19 or 20. This has been consistent since 3.x. > So decades of work to make it finally real-time safe is not worth it. Haha you can't actually be serious? Thomas Gleixner's goal was to get Real-Time patches merged, not to get an aesthetic version bump, because nobody cares about the version number.
