From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
Ryzen AI is beginning to work its way out to more processors while it hasn't been supported on Linux.
Then in October was AMD wanting to hear from customer requests around Ryzen AI Linux support.
Well, today they did their first public code drop of the XDNA Linux driver for providing open-source support for Ryzen AI.
The XDNA driver will work with AMD Phoenix/Strix SoCs so far having Ryzen AI onboard.
AMD has tested the driver to work on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS but you will need to be running the Linux 6.7 kernel or newer with IOMMU SVA support enabled.
In any event I'll be working on getting more information about their Ryzen AI / XDNA Linux plans for future article(s) on Phoronix as well as getting to trying this driver out once knowing the software support expectations.
