[SOLVED]About intel 12th gen cpu

Recently I am considering replacing my laptop with a 12th gen cpu one, I still want to use arch linux, but I am not sure how good the support is for 12th gen cpu.
And how does the system determine which type of core to use as there are p and e core for 12gen cpu?
If 12th gen cpu is not fully supported yet, is it likely to be fully support by the end of this year?

As long as you use the stock kernel then you shouldn't have any issues, it's only older kernels like linux-lts that don't have proper support.

No, it didn't "fix" anything. It just shifted the brokeness one space to the right. - jasonwryan

How can I determine whether or not I am using the stock kernel,

[... ~]$ pacman -Q linux
linux 5.17.1.arch1-1

And for the two type of core, will the system determine which type of core to use for different programs automatically or do I need to set up manually?

The linux package is the stock kernel.

The system does it for you.
