AMD DPTCi Driver RFC Posted for Ryzen Gaming Handheld Power Tuning
AMD today submitted a request for comments (RFC) patch series to the Linux kernel mailing list (LKML) introducing the Dynamic Power and Thermal Configuration Interface (DPTCi) driver. This new driver aims to enhance upstream Linux kernel support for optimizing power, performance, and thermals on modern Ryzen-powered gaming handheld devices. A notable aspect of this submission is that the driver was "assembled in part by AI," which has reportedly caused "a bit of a ruckus on the LKML due to lack of disclosure."
