Not sure, ARM is quite popular in the Linux space so I wonder whether they want to compromise that position by being dicks about it.
Nvidia is after chip design and manufacturing capabilities that ARM has as well as allowing them to enter the mobile/portable market (which is predominantly ARM based)
so we gonna see ARM based Nvidia?
You'll likely see ARM assisting with the design and architecture of Nvidia chips and assisting with manufacturing
like arm architecture is going to change?
so what do u mean here
oh like they assist to apple, Qualcomm, etc...
Yes, but instead of being a 3rd party resource they would be 1st party and have complete insight
ohh, then since there is no change on the arch of ARM its not gonna be a problem for Linux?
No, it would be daft of nvidia to force ARM to screw up a decent portion of their business
ARM is already a problem before. because of duplicate code. not all ARM processor is implemented the same, so each processor manufacturer create different way to handle in Linux kernel
i thought all ARM instruction were the same..even for different implementations
nope, else we would have generic kernels on android which is not the case atleast rn
so apple ARM has its own instructions also Qualcomm...so on and so forth?
not just vendor, but each chip. they do have *similar* instructions, but a lot of things differ if I am right
