Not to be confused with the modern Compute Express Link (CXL) standard, but IBM’s Coherent Accelerator Interface “CXL” / Coherent Accelerator Processor Interface “CAPI” support was stripped away today from the mainline Linux kernel. IBM’s CXL pre-dates the modern Compute Express Link multi-vendor effort as an effort that began more than one decade ago. IBM in 2022 in fact donated the OpenCAPI specifications to the CXL Consortium.
