I'm also under Intel NDA and it took them days to provide any meaningful guidance at all.
The only useful thing in these documents was a timeline/detailed list for the microcode patches, all of which should be public.
They also claim that Spectre/Meltdown are "not a bug or flaw in Intel products" and their slide deck has a whole slide dedicated to forward-looking statement disclaimers. Sigh.
Needless to say, we're not impressed.
- Simon_says 9y agoThey know what they're saying is bull hockey, but they have to say it, otherwise they'll lose their lawsuits. They have to be able to point to the public spec and say "See!? We're completely in spec! No bugs here." Nevermind that the bug is in the spec.
