Gen 9 instructions are gone from https://dgpu-docs.intel.com/installation-guides/ #72

Hi! There was a section dedicated to the default level zero and other libraries' installation for gen 9. Where did that information migrate?

For example, this used to be a valid link: https://dgpu-docs.intel.com/installation-guides/ubuntu/ubuntu-focal.html I get access denied.

Compute-runtime packages are built with level-zero headers in latest distributions, meaning that they build now also level-zero (in addition to OpenCL) Intel GPU backend, see: https://github.com/oneapi-src/level-zero/issues/73

Except for L0 support enabling, GEN9 GPU support has been in distributions driver packages for a long time.

If you need L0 support for iGPUs on older distribution versions, I think you can install user-space drivers for desired distro version from any of the repos mentioned here: https://dgpu-docs.intel.com/installation-guides/index.html

(In general, current user-space drivers support HW from Broadwell upwards. Main difference is against which HW the packages in given repo are validated against.)

Just skip installation for the OEM kernel DKMS driver(s), as those are needed only for (full) Intel discrete GPU support.

Another option is installing the L0 packages from compute-runtime releases: https://github.com/intel/compute-runtime/releases

PS. L0 Sysman API support for integrated GPUs is limited, iGPUs provide only couple of L0 GPU metrics.

@kurapov-peter If answer was fine, could you close this? (I cannot)
