More CXL Additions Arrive For Linux 6.12
Ahead of the Linux 6.12 merge window wrapping up this weekend with the Linux 6.12-rc1 release, merged on Friday were all of the Compute Express Link (CXL) updates for the new kernel.
Intel engineers continue carrying out much of the CXL enablement for the mainline Linux kernel. For Linux 6.12 the CXL subsystem has seen HDM decoder initialization from DVSEC ranges, refactoring of CXL mailboxes code, support for shared upstream link access coordinate calculation, removing locking on the memory notifier callback, and other changes. More details on the CXL Shared Upstream Link Calculation and other changes with Linux 6.12 can be found via this Git merge.
