Hi

I have adopted this package and have updated it!

Thanks!

GCC13.1 is mainlined in arch, so this means znver4 support can kick off on this kernel. The graysky compile patches have been updated too.

This kernel now natively supports the znver4 arch, but this kernel will most likely keep working on all AMD ryzen hardware. It's better to be able to address certain small perks or issues per architecture now and in the future.

If you use znver3 based hardware, please use linux-amd-znver3
If you use znver2 based hardware, please use linux-amd-znver2
If you use raven based hardware, please use linux-amd-raven

Tired of compiling? Use this binary repo instead! Add this at the end of /etc/pacman.conf :

[linuxkernels]
Server = http://nhameh.ovh/$repo/$arch
SigLevel = Optional TrustAll

Hmmm, I had some trouble with the amdgpu driver on a random boot on this release, but it appears to be random and its very hard to recreate for me (it happens very rarely it seems). It could also just be my new SIENNA hardware acting up. Keep me posted if there are any major problems with amdgpu, I personally think it was just a one-off.

I am currently experiencing some trouble with building this particular kernel on the new version, please hang on while I identify the problem..

The point is, mkinitcpio must not be part of your kernel package at all. Which tool you use, whether dracut, mkinitcpio must not affect your kernel image package in any case. This is sad, your kernel image is well done, and this mix with mkinitcpio administration is a bad design flaw. Sorry.

Archlinux is a distro of choice, just like this kernel is a kernel of choice. No one is forcing you to use this kernel. I also had to make my own choices, deciding what is best for the greater good. I'm sorry, but I cannot please everyone. I'm using mkinitcpio. I will not support every tool on the planet for using/building this kernel, I am just one person doing this in his free time, for everyone, for free, asking absolutely nothing in return.

This kernel started when I wanted to share my efforts with the world while working around some upstream issues on AMD hardware. I do not bear any resposabilities publishing this kernel; but I always try to do whats best for everyone none the less. If the world decides that someone else must use the "linux-amd" name in AUR, I will step back and let him do all that work -- but that is not decided by one man. (well unless its an arch linux core admin I guess)

This kernel is free for use. You have lost nothing in the proces. Learn to respect other peoples choices before going on some crazy dracut crusade. This is contrived, unnecessary and unkind.

PS. I make my living working with redhat servers, so I don't have anything against RHEL based distros. I do, however, have something against people attacking other peoples free will and trying too hard to make them look very bad in public.

@eggz depending on mkinitcpio BECAUSE THIS IS NOT REDHAT? Archlinux is the distro of choice, there is no need for this dependency. This is contrived, unnecessary and unkind.

<deleted-account> commented on 2021-01-25 11:25 (UTC)

Because this is Arch Linux, not Red Hat. This package only uses and tunes mkinitcpio. If you deviate from the mkinitcpio tools, indeed, this kernel/package is not for you.

Moo-Crumpus commented on 2021-01-25 11:20 (UTC)

Why does this depend on mkinitcpio. dracut is available, too.

Ok, thanks for letting me know. From the description:

Linux kernel aimed at the latest AMD Ryzen CPU based hardware

I thought this was meant to be compatible with the standard Arch Linux kernel, it does not mention that it disables certain core features. You probably should update the description to make people aware that this is not a drop-in replacement for core/linux as features are removed.

<deleted-account> commented on 2021-01-13 10:16 (UTC)

This kernel is performance oriented, encryption is not part of that.

If your priority is to be more compatible with the upstream kernel, and avoid any "disparities", I suggest you install the upstream kernel :-)
