Basically some Alder’s had the instruction available. I would like to check if my comp has the possibility. It is not in the bootloader. Maybe there is a way in KeyTool or another way? I don’t know if I would need to set affinity or if the CFS has a way to detect software running with the instruction and keep it running on P cores.

I’m mainly looking to try to enable this for the largest LLMs I am running. llama.cpp is looking for this instruction and subset already.

    I wonder if the kernel parameters for CPU isolation were set, if it would enable this.
