July 1 ReactOS, a free OS with binary compatibility with applications and drivers Windows, received the first implemented system call from the family Windows NT6 (in the Microsoft product line corresponds to, for example, Windows Vista, Windows 7 and 2008 Server).
Added: NtGetCurrentProcessorNumberEx (returns the logical processor number on which the calling thread is currently executing), a test for this function, the implementation in NTOS:KE and NTDLL, and related NT6+ RTL/NTDLL-level functions including RtlGetCurrentProcessorNumberEx and RtlIsProcessorFeaturePresent.
This change is symbolically important, as ReactOS has historically focused primarily on compatibility with Windows Server 2003 / NT 5.2, but in official description of this OS It is emphasized that he also looks towards compatibility with Windows Vista and later releases Windows NT. As Phoronix notes, this is another step towards compatibility with them.
