Support TSX instructions, which speed up the processing of data in a multi-threaded server environment, in processors Haswell, Haswell-E and their server analog was implemented with an error , due to it the company had to release Intel microcode update that blocks the execution of instructions TSX .
Colleagues from the Italian site Bits & Chips.it reported that Intel documentation has confirmed that the company has intentions to fix the problem with the TSX in future revisions generation processors Broadwell. As long as they are only available in version Core M for tablets and laptops, but in the future support TSX without errors will gain relevance for server versions Broadwell.
Apparently, the server processors generation Haswell solution TSX does not shine, and for the elimination of problems with stability, these instructions must be disabled via firmware. Haswell-E processors for desktop applications provide TSX support , but the performance and stability of their activation does not have much impact. Related Products :
