Recently Microsoft has released a preview version of Windows Subsystem for Linux version 1.1.5 which in this version directly introduces specific kernel support for ARM64 devices, with this support of course users can now customize global settings via .wslconfig on ARM64 devices.
According to Microsoft, this support is due to users realizing that the ARM-based Surface Pro X cannot configure a custom Kernel so that support has now been added in the latest preview version.
Apart from the presence of custom kernel support in the WSL version 1.1.5 preview, there are a number of improvements that Microsoft has also presented, which include:
- Implement custom kernel support for ARM64 (solves #4802)
- Implement user warnings
- Revert wsl2.pageReportingOrder to default (2MB). This change was causing freezes on older Windows builds that were missing a bug fix. This will be re-enabled once the fix has been backported.
- Terminate distro when WslConfigureDistribution changes default UID or flags
- Do not mount cgroup v1 for WSL2
- Ensure that the hostname is set in the root namespace
- Use current timestamp instead of UNIX zero for initramfs (solves #9638)
- Use a string insert for –release-notes do it doesn’t get accidentally localized
- Update Microsoft. WSLg to version 1.0.50
- WSLg: update Mariner to 2.0.20230107
- WSLg: samples/container: Add vGPU video acceleration docker sample
- rdp backend/rdp shell: sync window state with RDP client
- rdp backend/rdp shell: send window minmax info when window becomes visible
- rdp shell: fix window unsnap by keyboard shortcut and mouse drag
- rdp backend: East Asian keyboard fixes
- rdp shell: publish flatpak applications to start menu
Now for you ARM64 device users, you can get this version via the GitHub page followingthen you just have to install it as usual and now WSL is running better with the improvements presented above.
