Linux Kernel 5.19 has added initial support for Raptor Lake-P. Similar to the Alder Lake-P and previous models, the Raptor Lake-P series is primarily used for lightweight, high-performance laptops. A preliminary support code has been added in the 5.19 kernel to add the PCI device ID for the i915 graphics driver.
In the Linux Kernel 5.19 kernel, the developers introduced 24 lines of new code to provide initial support for Raptor Lake-P. A few months ago, people saw a batch of the same driver code for enabling Alder Lake-P. This includes raptor Lake-P PCI IDs0xA720, 0xA721, 0xA7A0, 0xA7A1, 0xA7A8 and 0xA7A9. These IDs do not reflect the different customization options for Alder Lake-P but allow for use with future variants and engineering samples
Intel’s next-generation CPU, code-named Raptor Lake, is expected to deliver 24 cores, 32 threads and a taller P-Core IPC. The 13th Generation Raptor Lake processor is based on a 10nm ESF process node (also known as the “Intel 7”) and will support the current LGA 1700 motherboard. The new chipset will offer dual-channel DDR5-5600 memory support, 20 PCIe Gen 5 channels, enhanced overclocking capability, and a TDP PL1 level of 125W.
