Linux 5.15 Is A Very Exciting Kernel For AMD

The thing I most want AMD to get their act together on is RAID. I've inherited a system which due to what it is used for is stuffed full of GPUs and has no room for a dedicated RAID controller card... while the AMD motherboard/software/fake/whatever-you-want-to-call-it works fine in Windows with the appropriate driver, Linux won't even see it. I tried mdadm RAID but the array falls apart on every reboot and I won't risk not being able to put it together again.
I'm not actually enormously fussed about per-core temperature monitoring. It was nice when I was into overclocking in a big way, but now I'm more interested in systems being stable for months at a time. My 3900X system is fairly well behaved, but the odd kernel regression does hit it occasionally - one landed yesterday; my wireless mouse now won't work through the KVM switch USB port unless I replug it after I'm at a desktop. Works fine with previous kernel version.

I'm not an Intel apologist. The current desktop I'm writing this on is AMD. I've just kept up with AMD's CPU side of things closely. While their GPU efforts have been... um... interesting, their day one CPU support has been lackluster, while Intel has been on the ball.

I'm a Linux user who has just placed an order for an AMD 5900HX laptop with an RTX 3070. Such a touch choice between the Intel 11800H and the AMD 5900HX. I have an AMD Ryzen 9 in my desktop, and it has provided a really good Linux experience. Looking forward to the 5.15 kernel.

The article explains most of the changes are new hardware and other changes are improvements. Do you have anything that does not work?
