Hello FreeBSD 11.2-RELEASE-p11 CPU: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2640 v3 @ 2.60GHz (2594.05-MHz K8-class CPU) sysctl hw.mds_disable was set to 3 (Automatic VERW or Software selection), HT disabled in BIOS, and i install manually latest CPU microcode from https://github.com/intel/Intel-Linux-Processor-Microcode-Data-Files/ I wonder why hw.mds_disable_state shows hw.mds_disable_state: software Broadwell instead VERW? sysctl hw.mds_disable=1 causes hw.mds_disable_state: VERW These automatic selection works correctly? -- dsk [email protected] _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
