First patches for Linux with early support for graphics from Intel's 10th generation was released. Graphics Gen 10 will appear in Intel Cannonlake processors, which promise to be released in late 2017. Since Kaby Lake processors registered Gen 9.5 graphics cores, we can expect that there will not be too much difference between the video cores of the processors of these generations. In any case, the availability of new graphics from 10-nm processors Cannonlake confirmed officially.
Also, the drivers revealed the name of the chipset for Cannonlake processors. This is a PCH Cannonpoint hub. Most likely, Cannonpoint will turn into a 300-series chipset by the time of the platform announcement, as it happened with the Kaby Point 200-series chipset. In addition, from the drivers you can learn the ID of Cannonlake-U models (0x5A52, 0x5A5A, 0x5A42, 0x5A4A) and Cannonlake-Y models (0x5A51, 0x5A58, 0x5A41, 0x5A49, 0x5A71, and 0x5A79). Among these models promise to be dual-core and quad-core versions with graphics class GT2.
Processors Cannonlake first wave will be designed for thin laptops. For desktop systems, Intel is preparing 14-nm processors, codenamed Coffee Lake. Improved technical process 14 ++ promises up to 15% increase the productivity of Coffee Lake models in comparison with its predecessors.
