    Phoronix: Linux 6.12 To Enhance The Hybrid P/E Core Experience On Intel Lunar Lake

    The work written about earlier this year on New Intel Linux Patches Continue Working To Improve Hybrid CPU Task Placement looks like it will be merged for the upcoming Linux 6.12 cycle as the patches have now been queued into the power management subsystem's "-next" branch. This latest Intel Core hybrid handling work is particularly focused on hybrid P/E-core processors without SMT / Hyper Threading, such as found with the upcoming Core Ultra 200V "Lunar Lake" processors...

    IMO Arrow Lake got a lot more interesting / exciting now that we know TSMC will fab the CPU tile in addition to the iGPU tile similar to Lunar Lake.

      I am excited about Skymont and its potential for handheld gaming or even for ultraportable laptops. If Lunar Lake is really that low power, I am excited to have it as well.

        It remains to be seen if the porting to TSMC changes anything in the characteristics of Arrow Lake H in comparison with what Intel had announced previously.

        The CPUs that were previously planned to be made by Intel, i.e. the laptop Arrow Lake H and the weaker Core 3 and Core 5 variants of the desktop Arrow Lake, were said to use a preliminary version of the Lion Cove and Skymont cores, which did not support some of the new instructions introduced by Lunar Lake and the Core 7 and Core 9 variants of Arrow Lake S, which are made by TSMC, for instance the instructions for computing SHA-512.

        Perhaps this anomaly will be corrected if all Arrow Lake S and Arrow Lake H are made by TSMC.

        However the laptop Arrow Lake H was planned to have a much weaker GPU than Lunar Lake, i.e. more or less the same GPU as Meteor Lake.

        This is unlikely to be improved.
