Why do AMD always have such a terrible response to these vulnerabilities? The article seems to suggest they’ve just decided to ignore this. They almost left zen 2 CPUs out of the Sinkclose fix and they took ages to release the Zenbleed fix for consumer CPUs despite it being available for enterprise ones when the vulnerability was released. And their microcode patches on Linux are only for server CPUs, desktop CPUs have to hope that their motherboard vendor releases a firmware update fairly quickly
