Really? An Intel developed distro doesn't favor their competitor's processors? Those bastards! AMD is free to release their own AMD optimized distro, but I doubt they will.

It was fun while it lasted! Maybe someone will come along and create a bundle called native-kernel-amd and submit it for inclusion.
So install Clear Linux as usual. Execute swupd bundle-add native-kernel-amd and it applies the needed patches and reboots.
Yes, Intel doesn't have to approve it or support it, but to me it would be no different than installing an NVidia or Radeon specific driver.

Their kernel config is hostile towards AMD - it keeps the support for non-Intel processors but they explicitly remove AMD bits(like the microcode: https://github.com/clearlinux-pkgs/l...c6/config#L354 ).
So, it will work on Ryzen, but not to its potential.
They removed: AMD Microcode, AMD Numa support(will affect the performance of Threadripper and EPYC), AMD encryption, AMD IOMMU, etc...

This is really interesting, do you know if this or any different project offers Clear Linux optimizations/patches for Debian?
Hopefully someone else will know a decent way to convert a PKGBUILD over to a Debian source package.
