AMD P-State Preferred Core handling for modern Ryzen systems. This is for leveraging ACPI CPPC data between CPU cores for improving task placement on AMD Ryzen systems for cores that can achieve higher frequencies and also helping in hybrid selection between say Zen 4 and Zen 4C cores. This AMD Preferred Core support has been in development since last year.
Performance gains on AMD 4th Gen EPYC
AMD FRU Memory Poison Manager merged along with other work as part of better supporting the AMD MI300 series.
AMD has continued upstreaming more RDNA3+ refresh and RDNA4 graphics hardware support into the AMDGPU driver.
I find it funny that #OrangePi is collaborating with #Manjaro to make a #gaming handheld called #OrangePiNeo and it's not #ARM but just yet another #AMD handheld like the rest of the fleet? Isn't Orange Pi a popular alternative to #RaspberryPi that sells ARM-based SBCs?
Power to them I guess but I definitely would love to see more ARM-based #Linux gaming handhelds (not #Android, we have a ton of those already) available, no matter how "not ready" ARM + Linux gaming is. Software support could always be improved and worked on later down the road once the hardware is available to target.
AMD Zen 5 Execution Engine Leaked, Features True 512-bit FPU
Giving "Zen 5" a 512-bit FPU meant that AMD also had to scale up the ancillaries [..]. The L1 Data cache has been doubled in bandwidth, and increased in size by 50%. The L1D is now 48 KB in size [..]. FPU MADD latency has been reduced by 1 cycle. Besides the FPU, AMD also increased the number of Integer execution pipes to 10, from 8 on "Zen 4."
AMD Working To Release MES Documentation & Source Code
"[..], AMD now says they will be releasing documentation followed by the source code for their Micro-Engine Scheduler (MES) IP block found within Radeon GPUs."
La Cina blocca l'uso di chip Intel e AMD nei computer governativi

@informapirata corriamo a larghe falcate verso un conflitto mondiale 😭
Loro forse possono fare a meno di #Intel ed #AMD. Ma noi riusciremmo a fare a meno di loro, dopo aver esternalizzato tutto l'esternalizzabile colà? @informatica
