Linux's New Way Of Informing User-Space Over Hung GPUs May Become More Useful

Last month I wrote about new code slated to be added for Linux 6.15 that would provide a cross-driver/standardized means of reporting to user-space over hung GPUs. For the likes of the AMD and Intel graphics drivers initially, user-space will be notified via this new wedged event when a GPU is hung in case user-space wants to take additional actions to try…

It means more unification and transitioning some Assembly code over to C, but it also comes with some hits to performance...
