In line with a report by Phoronix, (opens in new tab) AMD has launched a brand new set of Linux patches for supporting a mysterious new processor with the “Pink Sardine” codename. The patches intention to help model 6.2 of AMD’s Audio Coprocessor unit (ACP) on Pink Sardine. Sadly, we can’t totally affirm what Pink Sardine is, but it surely seems to consult with AMD’s upcoming Ryzen 7000 cellular APUs codenamed Phoenix.
What we all know for positive, nevertheless, is that Pink Sardine will help model 6.2 of AMD’s audio chip constructed into its microprocessors. It’s the newest model we have seen up to now, with present Ryzen 6000 (Rembrandt) chips supporting ACP model 6.0. Nevertheless, no present AMD microarchitecture helps model 6.2, so Pink Sardine should be referring to a future CPU structure.
