In March 2026, the compute-runtime team delivered enhanced memory visibility and validation across Linux and WDDM paths. Implemented interfaces to fetch current used memory for Linux native memory (local and system shared) and for the WDDM memory manager, and added an extension interface to report current usable memory for devices. Accompanying black-box validation ensures correctness of usable memory reporting after allocations. This improves observability, reliability, and capacity planning for memory-constrained workloads.

December 2025 monthly summary for intel/compute-runtime. Focus this month was delivering a key cross-platform improvement to Sysman by introducing an OS-agnostic Sysman product helper.

June 2025 monthly summary for intel/compute-runtime focusing on stability and correctness improvements in Windows Sysman for iGPU configurations. The month centered on aligning hardware reporting with platform capabilities and reducing noisy or erroneous feature reporting, preparing the codebase for broader platform support.

May 2025 performance summary for intel/compute-runtime: Delivered a significant firmware type discovery improvement in the Sysman module by integrating the igsc library. This refactor removes brittle /proc/mtd parsing and queries the firmware interface directly, increasing robustness and accuracy of firmware type detection across supported devices. No critical bugs were reported this month; the focus was feature enhancement, reliability, and maintainability. Impact: more reliable firmware detection supports smoother firmware upgrade paths, diagnostics, and broader platform compatibility. Technologies/skills demonstrated include igsc library integration, direct firmware querying, system module refactoring, and disciplined Git-based change management.

Implemented Windows iGPU memory properties and state reporting in intel/compute-runtime (sysman) to enable retrieval of memory properties and state for integrated GPUs on Windows. Updated device handling and Windows API-based memory reporting to surface memory details (physical size, location) for both iGPUs and discrete GPUs. This work improves hardware visibility, monitoring, and reliability on Windows platforms, enabling better capacity planning and issue triage.

Monthly summary for 2025-03: Focused on stabilizing Sysman test coverage and expanding Sysman capabilities across Windows iGPU memory reporting and BMG power energy counter integration. Delivered concrete features and reliability improvements that directly support CI stability, power analytics, and hardware visibility, enabling faster development cycles and more accurate resource planning.

In February 2025, the Level Zero test suite received a targeted reliability and correctness improvement: alphanumeric validation for sysman device serial and board numbers was added, along with an accompanying helper and test updates. This reduces risk of false positives due to invalid hardware identifiers and helps maintain data integrity across test runs. The changes, captured in commit 1bf30fb27abfdb2367a0f72e279173e47b38f418, enhance test coverage and keep copyright year current.

January 2025 focused on strengthening Sysman testing, API alignment, and test suite maintainability across Level Zero tests and related runtime components. Delivered targeted enhancements that increase test coverage, reliability, and performance visibility, while standardizing test quality practices to support faster, safer integration of Sysman features.

December 2024 performance summary focused on delivering targeted features for performance monitoring, expanding test coverage, and improving conformance reliability across Sysman components. Key outcomes include the introduction of PMT counter offset mappings for BMG in the Intel compute-runtime and a new Sysman VF Management CTS, alongside significant robustness and reliability fixes in Sysman conformance tests.

Month: 2024-11 — Focused on strengthening the Level Zero test suite quality in oneapi-src/level-zero-tests. Delivered the Sysman Init Test Suite Refactor and Cleanup, which renames test functions and variables for clarity and consistency, and updates the copyright year in the test harness device header. Core test logic remained unchanged, ensuring risk-free refactors while improving readability and maintainability. This work reduces onboarding time for new contributors and lowers maintenance costs by standardizing naming and headers. No major bugs were reported this month; the improvements provide a solid foundation for upcoming test modernization and reliability improvements.
