Assuming Meteor Lake is still on track for launching in mobile systems later this year, hopefully the MTL enablement will be stabilized and enabled by default for Linux 6.5 so that it will be in released kernels ahead of the Meteor Lake processor launch.Ī new kernel module option added with this week's Intel DRM update is i915.enable_sagv.

More Meteor Lake code is squared away for Linux 6.4. In this latest pull there is continued Meteor Lake graphics enablement work just as there has been ongoing efforts for a number of months now. While Intel's open-source graphics driver engineers are busy working on the new Xe DRM kernel driver for introduction in a future kernel cycle, the existing 'i915' DRM driver continues to receive fixes and new improvements. Following this week's drm-intel-gt-next pull with more Meteor Lake enablement and other new feature code, a final batch of drm-intel-next feature updates were also submitted to DRM-Next for staging ahead of the upcoming Linux 6.4 kernel merge window.Ī last batch of new feature code for the Intel 'i915' Direct Rendering Manager driver has been sent in for the Linux 6.4 kernel cycle that will be kicking off around the end of April.
