NVIDIA today posted a new series of Linux kernel scheduler patches on the mailing list. These patches are designed to further boost Simultaneous Multithreading (SMT) performance specifically for NVIDIA Vera GPUs, which incorporate Olympus cores. The proposed changes enable "preferred SMT siblings" within the scheduler, aiming to optimize how threads are handled across the GPU's processing units. This initiative indicates NVIDIA's continued efforts to refine the performance of its hardware on the Linux platform, particularly for its latest Vera architecture.
