Over five months after the major 10 release, Oracle announced the global availability of the first update in the series, Oracle Linux 10.1 for x86_64 and aarch64 systems.

The release ships two kernel options: the Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel 8.1, based on Linux 6.12 for both architectures, and the Red Hat Compatible Kernel 6.12 for x86_64.
