Umshayeli we-AMDGPU uzothuthukisa i-Linux 4.17 kernel

I-DRM-Next ilethe ukuthuthuka okubalulekile kumshayeli I-AMDGPU ku-Linux 4.17 kernel. Ngenxa yabathuthukisi abalethe izici ezintsha kulo mshayeli we-kernel wokuqhafaza. Kusukela ekuqaleni kukaFebhuwari, kubikwa izinguquko nokuthuthuka kwe-AMDGPU ngezibuyekezo ezahlukahlukene zeLinux 4.17, njengokufakwa kosizo lweWattMan, ukusebenza ekuphathweni kombala we-gamma, nokunye ukuthuthuka okuningi, phakathi kwawo esingagqamisa okokubonisa kweDC yaleso silawuli.

U-Alex Deucher uphinde wathumela iqoqo lesibili lezibuyekezo kuleli sonto eledlule le- izici ezintsha ze-DRM-Next okugxile kakhulu ekuthuthukisweni okwengeziwe kwe-AMDGPU kunalokho ebesinakho ngoFebhuwari. Ngakho-ke, izindaba ezinhle kakhulu kumakhasimende e-AMD anamakhadi ehluzo avela kulo mkhiqizi, njengoba ukusebenza nokusebenza kahle kwama-GPU kuzothuthuka kakhulu ekusatshalalisweni kwawo okuyintandokazi kwe-GNU/Linux. Phakathi kwezici ezintsha ezilindelwe kuleli qoqo elisha lezibuyekezo kukhona ukuthuthuka okwengeziwe kanye nezinguquko ku-WattMan zokulawula amandla kagesi newashi, okuqinisekisa ukunemba okwengeziwe, kanye nengqalasizinda yephrofayili yamandla enkulu ukuphathwa kwamandla okunamandla kwama-AMD GPU, okuzoholela ekusebenzeni kahle kwamandla, okungukuthi, ukusetshenziswa okuncane nokushisa okuncane ukuze ujabulele ihluzo zakho ngokufanelekile.

Kepha uma lokho kwanele kuwe, kufanele futhi ulinde izixazululo ezintsha yokuxhaswa kwe-SR-IOV, isikhombimsebenzisi esisha sokudonswa kwe-IOMEM sokusebenzisa i-UMR debugger, ukulungisa amaphutha kwe-PowerPlay, ukulungiswa kwamakhodi wesikrini, ukuthuthukiswa kokuphathwa kwememori ye-TTM, nokunye okuningi ukulungisa ukulungisa iphutha kwamakhodi. Futhi mhlawumbe kuzoba neqoqo lesithathu lezithuthukisi ngaphambi kokuthi iLinux 4.17 ivale umjikelezo wayo wokufakwa ... Uma abathuthukisi bethola leso sibuyekezo esikhulu sesithathu se-AMDGPU, lapho-ke iLinux 4.17 izomela ukweqa okukhulu ngekhwalithi yabasebenzisi abanehluzo ze-AMD.
