"'block: virtio-blk now supports multiqueue where different queues of a single disk can be processed by different I/O threads
migration: support for “mapped-ram” capability allowing for more efficient VM snapshots, improved support for zero-page detection, and checkpoint-restart support for VFIO

ARM: board support for […] raspi4b (Raspberry Pi 4 Model B)"'
Back in 1982, I was pouring over these adverts..
Ok, the fact that the "AI" (NPU) chip controller inside Intel's new Meteor Lake CPUs uses SPARC instruction set (from 1990?) was not on my bingo cards for this year. https://chipsandcheese.com/2024/04/22/intel-meteor-lakes-npu/
@Andi Luckily I’ve recently tested SGX cgroups patches with Tumbleweed, i.e. know how to compile equivalent distro kernel (as it is made for OpenSUSE) for any possible kernel tree :-) So can easily try this out once the bandwidth is available.
It is maybe even easier than Ubuntu kernel (which has been easiest so far):
./scripts/install-git-hooks # not sure whether this is really required
./scripts/tar-up.sh
export LINUX_GIT=~/work/linux-tpmdd # clean clone swithed to branch of your choice
./scripts/osc_wrapper kernel-source/kernel-default.spec
The packages land to /var/tmp/build-root/standard-x86_64/home/abuild/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64
. And obviously needs to be signed with a MOK key if secure boot is turned on.
