# I3C Hub & HDR-DDR Support Merged For Linux 7.4

**[Phoronix](https://daily.dev/sources/phoronix)** · 1 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Linux 7.4 merges I3C hub support and HDR-DDR fixes for the MIPI I3C subsystem. The core I3C master code now supports a generic I3C hub framework for bridging communication across connected devices, plus a new driver for the NXP P3H2x4x multi-port I3C hub family. The hub patch series went through 20 rounds of review before landing. HDR-DDR support in the mipi-i3c-hci driver now handles dual edge sampling with throughput up to 25 Mbps.

## Questions this post answers

### What new I3C features are included in Linux kernel 7.4?

Linux 7.4 adds a generic I3C hub framework built on adapted core I3C master code, enabling bridging and expansion across MIPI I3C connected devices. It also introduces a new driver for the NXP P3H2x4x family of multi-port I3C hub devices. The hub patch series went through 20 rounds of code review before merging into mainline.

_Kernel developers tracking I3C hub support can follow driver changes like this on daily.dev._

### What throughput does I3C HDR-DDR mode support in the Linux mipi-i3c-hci driver?

HDR-DDR (High Data Rate Double Data Rate) support in the mipi-i3c-hci driver provides dual edge sampling with throughput up to 25 Mbps. Fixes and clean-ups for this mode were merged into Linux kernel 7.4, enabling faster transfers over MIPI I3C connections.

_Developers evaluating I3C transfer speeds can keep up with kernel driver updates on daily.dev._
