While the Linux 4.5 kernel’s merge window ended more than one week ago, it looks like the AMDGPU driver may get a late feature arrival: ACP support.
ACP is the Audo Co-Processor support found in new AMD APUs/SoCs. AMD developers had been working on the support for several months while the audio and power management related ACP code landed during the Linux 4.5 merge window. With that code now mainlined, AMD’s Alex Deucher is looking to land the ACP driver support into the AMDGPU DRM driver.
