Generalized (0,6),(8,14),9,YP stepping case to include Pentium 4425Y, from instlatx64 sample. Updated 7/0/edx comments to reflect original info source for SRBDS mitigation MSR available, previously just marked LX*. Updated 7/0/edx comments to reflect original info source for RTM transaction always aborts, previously just marked LX*. Added (vuln to branch type confusion synth) synthetic leaf to correct for the one known inaccuracy. Added those two original source web pages from Intel: Intel Transactional Synchronization Extensions (Intel TSX) Memory and Performance Monitoring Update for Intel Processors (Article ID 000059422), Special Register Buffer Data Sampling. Added 0x80000008/ebx not vulnerable to branch type confusion flag from "Technical Guidance For Mitigating Branch Type Confusion (White Paper)". Also added a synthetic flag to correct the special case for Family 0x19, where the raw flag is documented to be wrong. Added 7/2/edx indirect branch prediction related flags from Intel's "Branch History Injection and Intra-mode Branch Target Injection / CVE-2022-0001, CVE-2022-0002 / INTEL-SA-00598". Added (uarch synth) decoding for (0,6),(6,14) Cougar Mountain, mentioned as Airmont by Intel's "Retpoline: A Branch Target Injection Mitigation". Added "Branch History Injection and Intra-mode Branch Target Injection / CVE-2022-0001, CVE-2022-0002 / INTEL-SA-00598" and "Retpoline: A Branch Target Injection Mitigation". Clarified (synth) for (0,6),(8,13) Tiger Lake-H from SSG*. Added support for hypervisor+3/ecx (Microsoft) flags. Added support for hypervisor+0xa/eax (Microsoft) VMCS GuestIa32DebugCtl support flag. Added support for hypervisor+0xa/ebx (Microsoft) VMCS HvFlushGu
2022022425 Feb 2022 20:03 major feature: Added (synth) and (uarch synth) decoding for AMD Rembrandt E1. Added hypervisor+4/eax (Xen) expanded destination id bit. Removed bogus 7/1/eax bit 24 "AMX tile support". Renamed 6/eax bit to 23 to mention Thread Director. Widened 6/ecx number of enh hardware feedback classes from bits 8-11 to bits 8-15. Renamed 7/1/eax bit to 10 to include "fast". Added 7/1/ebx decoding. Added 0x14/0/ebx decoding for support for IA32_RTIT_CTL EventEn DisTNT bits. Added synth decoding for (0,6),(11,15) Alder Lake, based on MSR_CPUID_table*. Confirmed synth decoding for (0,6),(10,8) Rocket Lake. Added (synth) steppings based on instlatx64 samples. Corrected missing Core name for (0,6),(9,7) Alder Lake-S A0 stepping. In 0x18 leaves, line up values better.
2021121011 Dec 2021 09:28 major feature: Added new fields for AMD family 17h model 01h B1, including SME/SEV. Added new fields for Intel CET. Added many new fields in Microsoft hypervisor leaves.
2018051919 May 2018 13:30 major feature: Added new fields for AMD family 17h model 01h B1, including SME/SEV. Added new fields for Intel CET. Added many new fields in Microsoft hypervisor leaves.
2018041920 Apr 2018 06:48 major feature: Added synth decoding for Pentium Silver, Xeon Scalable, Bay Trail, and AMD Zen. Added leaf 18 (deterministic address translation), many new bit fields bugfixes.
