CachyOS kernel patches forward-ported the BORE scheduler to Linux 7.2-rc5 as the maintainers ship updates across gaming tools and system configuration.

The BORE scheduler port to 7.2-rc5 [1] required significant API updates to accommodate upstream kernel refactoring, particularly in how the `requeue_delayed_entity` function signature changed to include runqueue context and how `update_curr` was flattened. On the gaming front, gamescope jumped to 3.16.25 [2] while steamos-manager hit 26.4.1-1 [3] and steamdeck-dsp landed at 0.99-1 [4], though steam itself was dropped from the repos [5]. Documentation expanded significantly with CPU guidelines now more detailed in cachyos_settings.mdx [6], and the Hyprland config gained support for noctalia-greeter [7] plus a new zoom function with key bindings [8]. The public dashboard now consumes live mirrorlist data from the API [9], moving away from static baseline data to reflect current mirror status.

Action items

→ Test BORE scheduler forward-port on 7.2-rc5 in pre-release builds CachyOS/kernel-patches [plan]
→ Integrate gamescope 3.16.25 and steamos-manager 26.4.1-1 into next release cycle CachyOS/CachyOS-PKGBUILDS [plan]
→ Verify dashboard mirror resolution uses live API data correctly in staging CachyOS/public-dashboard [monitor]
