RHEL 9 on 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) Raptor Lake

Latest response

Hi all,

i am running RHEL 8.9 on a Intel NUC with the Intel i5-1340P CPU:

grep -E '^(cpu family|model|stepping|microcode)' /proc/cpuinfo | sort -u
cpu family  : 6
microcode   : 0x411c
model       : 186
model name  : 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-1340P
stepping    : 2

The system runs fine, but i would like to upgrade to RHEL 9(.3) for newer software-packages.

If i understand right, catalog.redhat states the CPU is certified, but when i run leapp preupgrade the reports says

Risk Factor: high (inhibitor)
Title: Leapp detected a processor which is no longer supported in RHEL 9. Upgrade cannot proceed.
Summary: Support for the following processors has been removed in RHEL 9:
     - Unknown Intel Cpu Models

Key: f79672290945c09de12a14b28906b98d5c8ed68a

I know the rhel 9 linux kernel 5.14 does not support the hybrid cores but i would not have expected leapp to block the update.

Is there an issue with Raptor Lake and RHEL 9 or just the leapp buggy/does not know the CPU?

How could i bypass the inhibitor?
