Considering Intel is working on this for the last 6 months, it is indeed a little telling that they did not have the patch behind a feature flag. It also explains why AMD was so passive aggressive while inserting the exception for their CPUs. Seems like Intel was trying to make this some sort of act of god type of deal instead of writing out the if(intel){horrible mitigation}.

- cryptonector 9y agoHardly passive-aggressive. What would the alternative have been? Leave PTI on on AMD just out of sympathy for Intel?!
