Quote:AMD Zen5 patches for GCCContinue Reading
AMD has begun work on enabling the Zen5 microarchitecture through the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC). First patches were shared through a mailing list titled “Enable support for next generation AMD Zen5 CPU with znver5 scheduler Model”.
One could have expected Zen5 enablement to come sooner, considering that the GCC 14 release is expected in March and April, which is a typical annual release for this compiler. However, AMD tends to release such updates even after the release of the new product. That said, AMD is actually speeding up its enablement by introduction first Zen5 patches even before the product launch.
The Zen5 architecture is expected to make its debut later this year, featuring the desktop Granite Ridge series and potential mobile variants from the Strix Point series. Interestingly, AMD’s progress on Zen5 development is occurring alongside Intel’s work on the Clearwater Forest and Panther Lake CPU series, not expected to launch this year.
