Linux 7.0 shipped April 12. A PREEMPT_LAZY scheduling change regresses PostgreSQL on AWS Graviton4, the Arm Neoverse-V2 class powering much of AWS RDS. Day nineteen, 7.1-rc2 still does not close it. Fedora 44 (April 28) and Grml 2026.04 (April 30) shipped 6.19. Mageia 10 stayed on 6.18 LTS. Ubuntu 26.04 LTS shipped 7.0, locking the regression into a five-year window.
