Well, he said, but those accustomed to only thinking x86 might have missed |
| 11 |
it, the way it was worded... that ppc uses different software code in that |
| 12 |
section, code which presumably takes care of its own ppc specific issues, |
| 13 |
so the sse-only issue only applies to x86 (and amd64, but since all of |
| 14 |
those have sse, that means only x86 has the issue since only on it is sse |
| 15 |
required but not all hardware provides it). |
