Intel updated their AVX10 whitepaper and associated open-source compiler patches around this next Advanced Vector Extensions standard... While AVX10 had intended to allow either 256-bit or 612-bit modes depending upon processor capabilities, Intel has dropped the 256-bit-only approach and going for 512-bit everywhere. Thus it would seem to indicate that Intel E cores of the future will properly support AVX 512-bit operation!..

Slipping under my radar in October was the release of NASM 3.00 and the follow-up NASM 3.01 release shortly there after. This widely-used open-source assembler is now ready with support for Intel's Advanced Performance Extensions (APX) and AVX10...

Intel confirms AVX10 support for Nova Lake in new ISA reference Intel’s latest Instruction Set Extensions Programming Reference (Revision 060, November 2025) confirms that AVX10.1, AVX10.2 and APX are...

Last year Intel and AMD formed an x86 Ecosystem Advisory Group "EAG" in collaboration with key partners. The x86 Ecosystem Advisory Group is to collaborate and innovate further around the x86_64 ISA. With AMD and Intel in agreement, FRED (Flexible Return Event Delivery), AVX10, and Advanced Performance Extensions (APX) are some of the early areas where they are finding common ground and interest...

Coming out this week was an updated AVX10 whitepaper from Intel with the surprising decision that 512-bit floating point and integer support is no longer considered optional for AVX10.2. AVX10.2 now mandates 128 / 256 / 512-bit support and in turn also dropped the 256-bit embedded rounding support with the focus on 512-bit. The LLVM/Clang compiler had seen its AVX10 support designed around Intel's original AVX10 design assumptions and thus now is being modified to address these changes...

It's been one year already since Intel and AMD formed the x86 Ecosystem Advisory Group in cooperation with other industry stakeholders. Today both companies are marking the first anniversary while reaffirming their commitment to the group...
