As Michael Larabel of Phoronix reports, the hard work of Intel's open-source developers has paid off, as Linux 5.20 will be the basis for DG2 and Alchemist Arc graphics desktop GPUs. Included with the recent updates is also the server GPUs Arctic Sound-M (also known as ATS-M), which support is ready for use once the kernel is released.

Intel's development team has done a fantastic job updating each kernel cycle to future-proof all versions. We have seen plenty of Intel DG2, and Arc Alchemist code merged into the i915 Direct Rendering Manager (DRM) driver, including the most recent Linux 5.19 kernel. This particular version of Linux has seen compute user-space ABI support that will be available for the DG2 architecture, as well as several PCI IDs included in DG2 that appear to be utilized for the company's notebook Arc graphics. Lastly, there have also been new features and hardware fixes for various issues since first working on the project.
