I’m curious about the legal state of any academic research that would be done on top of these leaks. If I recall correctly some of the details of the exact workings of atomic instructions and cache coherence protocol are not publicly documented and had to be discovered empirically. Would be fun to confirm some of these findings and settle some old arguments through direct inspection of the design.
