Phoronix: Intel Prepares More DG2/Alchemist & Xe HP Driver Improvements For Linux 5.18

Intel's big open-source Linux graphics driver engineering team has submitted their last feature pull of new material for inclusion into the upcoming Linux 5.18 kernel. Intel engineers remain very busy on the discrete GPU enablement both for the DG2/Alchemist Arc graphics cards as well as the forthcoming compute accelerators...

Hi, would be interesting to know if any of that intel stuff is already working under linux. Igor from Igorslab.de has put together a system with a dg1 card and got that running under windows at least. In a comment he stated he would be open to anybody who sends him an image if remote testing for linux is wanted

-> post number 7 and number 8, rough translation:

7: Test under Linux, perhaps grant Michael Larabel from Phoronix access? Tests concerning Linux and Vulkan etc would be interesting

8: So far nobody asked, He can send an image, I can get it on the machine and he can connect remotely. I have 1000/500 Fibre, bandwidth should suffice.
