A reminder to please take discussions about these patches on other distros to an appropriate channel :)

Updated to 6.12rc2, most of the old patches (keyboard, bluetooth, zsc etc) are now in upstream! This package is now only useful for the heterogeneous CPU patch (performance & efficiency increases) and the NPU patch (currently no practical use case)

6.12rc4 appears to be stable enough

Thanks for the work on this. I am also tracking this closely. I just got the hardware myself and rc3 has locked up on me a bit so definitely interested in your findings.

I haven't tried this package yet but will give it a go if it's better than rc3.

6.12rc3 seems to have some serious stability problems compared to 6.12rc2, will investigate...

Thanks for the feedback. I've done my best before, and now after your comment, and it is beyond my ability to determine how to derive the XDNA driver version in the patch. Though Manjaro is not Arch, I have been 100% stable on this 6.12rc2-2 since updating two days ago with the modifications I listed before. As my goal is to eventually be savvy enough to move to Arch, I'd be glad to share any information that could be helpful and would appreciate the experience gained while doing so.

@macboy80 the crashes in this case are brand new for 6.12rc2. Furthermore, the NPU patch is for XDNA3.5 – if you claim to be great at research, maybe start by looking at the included patch set, all sources are clearly labeled in the PKGBUILD. Also, any odd behavior on Manjaro cannot be taken at face value, as Manjaro IS NOT Arch. However, I will look into the X86_FEATURE_HETERO_CORE_TOPOLOGY patch

Thank you for your work on this. I'm fairly new to Arch (using Manjaro/KDE,) but I'm a great researcher.

I've consistently had random screen freezes throughout the 6.11 updates. it seems that I still have to use "amdgpu.dcdebugmask=0x600" and I also had to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox. I'd call it 99% stable for me on 6.11.0-1-mainline-um5606-dirty. I should also mention I'm on mesa 1:24.2.4-1. Are your freezes something new with this current 6.12rc2?

I have a couple more questions. Please correct me if this is not the right venue.

This thread mentioned not to use the XDNAv2 driver. I'm not sure if that is what the NPU patch is for. https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/3545

If this package is for more than bugfix, than this patch seems like something worth having. https://www.phoronix.com/news/AMD-Linux-Hetero-Max-Detect

@thomasgassmann I'm getting those freezes too, not sure what to do tbh :(

@That1Calculator Thanks for updating! I consistently experience display freezes a few minutes after boot. Is this a known issue? Or anything I could try?

@Boulate With MAKEFLAGS="-j$(nproc)", my system took exact 30 mins to compile the kernel.

Meanwhile, I found my system becomes not stable with the kernel 6.11. I encountered quite a few system hangs on EndeavourOS Gnome 47 (also on Fedora 41 beta, but less frequent).
