Out today is the Intel Compute Runtime 26.14.37833.4 that now includes production support for the newly-launched [1]Wildcat Lake cut-down Panther Lake SoCs that debuted last week as the [2]Core Series 3 .

Recent versions of the open-source Intel Compute Runtime for OpenCL and Level Zero were already advertising Wildcat Lake as "pre-release" support while today's version has bumped Wildcat Lake to being "production" support.

Also of note with today's new Compute Runtime release is the [3]Crescent Island AI accelerator support being promoted from "experimental" status to a "early support" flag. It looks like the Intel Crescent Island enablement work continues moving along nicely.

This new Intel Compute Runtime also advertises Level Zero 1.15 support, up from v1.14 on prior releases.

The new release also now enables staging buffers on Xe3P hardware, enabling the InternalHeap pool allocator, enabling the unified shared memory (USM) host pool manager in OpenCL, enabling the shared system USM by default for Battlemage, setting the huge graphics chunk size to 256MB to help with better performance, applying 2MB alignment to all local memory allocations, and various other changes.
