The latest AMD AMD64 Architecture Programmer's Manual adds a CPUID feature XSaveErPtr (CPUID_Fn80000008_EBX[2]). If this feature is set, the FXSAVE, XSAVE, FXSAVEOPT, XSAVEC, XSAVES / FXRSTOR, XRSTOR, XRSTORS always save/restore error pointers, thus making the X86_BUG_FXSAVE_LEAK workaround obsolete on such CPUs.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
