Linux 7.2 DRM-Next Pull Adds 'Fair' Scheduler Priority, AMDXDNA AIE4 Hardware Support

Development for the upcoming Linux 7.2 kernel has begun, with the initial "drm-misc-next" pull request submitted to DRM-Next in April. This occurred while the Linux 7.1 merge window was still active. The pull request queues new features for Linux 7.2, which is anticipated for release this summer. Key changes include setting the default Direct Rendering Manager (DRM) scheduler priority to "Fair." Additionally, the AMDXDNA driver will receive support for new AIE4 hardware. These updates mark the start of significant feature integration for the next kernel iteration.
