To those who are familiar with the latest offering of ryzen 7000 cpus also know about the fact, that the ones who have 3D v-cache, have it on only one of the two pertaining chiplets, which means that only about half the cores have direct access to the 3D v-cache memory. And as such, AMD doesn't have built-in task schedulers which would favor the v-cached cores for cache intensive workloads and relies on an operating system's cpu scheduler to assign the cores to their appropriate functions.
But who am I kidding with this fancy talk. I am a Linux gamer through and through!
What I want to know is whether can I expect (or is it already a feature) for Linux to have software managed methods to prioritize v-cached cores for gaming and cache intensive workloads? Maybe it will be added in game mode?
