I just upgraded to Fusion 6 for Haswell support.
But looks like Fusion 6 is missing support for the following Haswell ISA/Features: avx2, vmi, lzcnt.
I slightly modified the program shown in this page: https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/how-to-detect-new-instruction-support-in-the-4th-generation-intel-core-process….
On Ubuntu 14.04 Beta2 guest:
> ./a.out
avx2 not supported!
bmi1 not supported!
bmi2 not supported!
lzcnt not supported!
This CPU does not support all ISA extensions introduced in Haswell
On the haswell iMac (Mac OS Mavericks):
$ uname -v
Darwin Kernel Version 13.1.0: Thu Jan 16 19:40:37 PST 2014; root:xnu-2422.90.20~2/RELEASE_X86_64
$ ./a.out
This CPU supports ISA extensions introduced in Haswell
VMware,
Can you please confirm if these instructions are supported? If they are not currently supported, is there a plan to support them in the near future?
Thanks
Nitin
