- tambre 3y agoI don't think that's known yet. But M3 was ARMv8.6-A and Apple's been keeping up nicely. If Oryon is ARMv8.0-A then that's quite a disappointment. The LSE instructions are incredibly nice.
- toxicdevil 3y agoOryon is also 8.6. V9 comes with sve2 sme etc
- celrod 2y agoThe Apple M4 is rumored to be ARMv9, even featuring SME on top of SVE2: https://wccftech.com/apple-m4-adopts-armv9-run-complex-workloads-efficiently/ https://wccftech.com/apple-m4-adopts-armv9-run-complex-workl... If true, I'd much rather buy an M4 and use Asashi linux (once it supports the M4) than Oryon, but I enjoy low level coding. Being NEON-only doesn't really bring anything new or interesting to the table from that perspective.
