AMD Linux Driver's LRU Bulk Moves Can Be A Big Help For Demanding Linux Games

[ernstp]

bridgman When speaking of a big help for performance, could you please forward this to the concerned team which should get in touch with the glibc developers (Red Hat Engineer Partner Management or contact Florian Weimer directly) as it seems that glibc does enable a fast path only for capable Intel CPUs because they need more insights into AMD's architectures: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=24979

As this issue came up recently, here is another Mailing list entry of interest to justify the current behaviour: https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha.../msg00155.html

I pinged about it on Twitter, they know: https://twitter.com/zappor/status/1172377033181020165
