Intel Panther Lake & Diamond Rapids Model IDs Added For Linux 6.12

([Intel] 6 Hours Ago Panther Lake + Diamond Rapids)


Submitted today as the "x86 fixes" for the Linux kernel ahead of the Linux 6.12-rc1 release this evening is adding two new Intel CPU model numbers.

With the Intel Granite Rapids and Sierra/Clearwater Forest enablement cleared along with Intel Lunar Lake and Arrow Lake, the open-source software engineers at the company are beginning to bring-up next-generation Panther Lake cores and Diamond Rapids as the next-gen Xeon P-core processors.

The patch submitted for mainlining today is just adding the new 0xCC model ID for Panther Lake L and then the Family 19 Model 1 identification for Diamond Rapids with its Panther Cove X cores. As I wrote about a few days ago, Diamond Rapids is the generation where [1]Intel Family 6 is ending and being succeeded by Family 19 .

Expect more Intel Panther Lake and Diamond Rapids enablement code to be posted soon. On the [2]Panther Lake side there's already been some work like enabling audio support and other bits but the more exciting pieces to come later.

[3]This pull of x86 fixes for Linux 6.12 is what has the model numbers now in place for identification.
