Ngokubambezeleka okuncane, i-Latin American Free Software Foundation ishicilele inguqulo yamahhala ngokuphelele ye-Linux 5.17 kernel - Linux-libre 5.17-gnu, esulwe izici ze-firmware namashayeli aqukethe izingxenye ezingezona zamahhala noma izingxenye zekhodi, ububanzi bayo kukhawulwe ngumkhiqizi. Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-Linux-libre ikhubaza ikhono le-kernel lokulayisha izingxenye zangaphandle ezingezona zamahhala ezingafakiwe ekusabalaliseni i-kernel, futhi isusa ireferensi ekusetshenzisweni kwezingxenye ezingakhululekile emibhalweni.
Ukuze kuhlanzwe i-kernel ezingxenyeni ezingezona zamahhala, iskripthi segobolondo yendawo yonke sidalwe ngaphakathi kwephrojekthi ye-Linux-libre, equkethe izinkulungwane zezifanekiso zokunquma ubukhona bokufaka kanambambili nokususa ama-positives angamanga. Amapheshana enziwe ngomumo adalwe kusetshenziswa umbhalo ongenhla nawo ayatholakala ukuze alandwe. I-Linux-libre kernel iyanconywa ukuthi isetshenziswe ekusabalaliseni okuhlangabezana nemibandela ye-Free Software Foundation yokwakha ukusatshalaliswa kwe-GNU/Linux kwamahhala ngokuphelele. Isibonelo, i-Linux-libre kernel isetshenziswa ekusabalaliseni okufana ne-Dragora Linux, Trisquel, Dyne:Bolic, gNewSense, Parabola, Musix ne-Kongoni.
Ukukhishwa kwekhodi engeziwe ye-Linux-libre 5.17-gnu yokuhlanza ama-blobs kumafayela e-dts kuma-SoC amasha asekelwe ekwakhiweni kwe-Aarch64 kanye nakumshayeli wamathebhulethi we-x86-android-tablet wama-PC ethebhulethi asekelwe ekwakhiweni kwe-x86. Ikhodi yokususa i-blob ebuyekeziwe ku-tegra, bnx2x, mt7915, btmtk kanye namashayeli we-mscc namasistimu angaphansi.
