According to Phoronix, on September 6, 2026, the development version of Linux kernel 7.3 (rc2) introduced fixes for schedulers designed for hybrid processor architectures. This update aims to address the adaptation issues of cache-aware load scheduling on hybrid CPUs by optimizing the scheduling algorithm to improve performance on such hardware platforms.
Before the release of the Linux 7.3-rc2 kernel beta version, scheduler fixes have been issued this week, primarily addressing adaptation issues that may occur with cache-aware load scheduling on mixed CPUs (such as Intel Core Ultra).
