I hope Intel at least disclosed important details to OpenBSD Developers. Given that Linux patches are published, it is not effective to keep these kind of information hidden.

SPARC is not affected.
POWER 7/8/9 are affected but for Linux only. I don’t believe AIX is affected. zSeries is affected but for Linux only. I don’t believe z/OS is affected. Garbage architectures and garbage operating systems are affected. Go figure. |

Matt Dillon was talking about this kind of thing back in April.

I stand corrected about AIX on POWER. IBM announced that AIX and i series patches will be released beginning February 12. But I’ve still not seen anything about z/OS. As far as I can find SPARC is unaffected.

In my very own mundane view of the world I'm wondering about my soekris box (cpu0: Geode(TM) Integrated Processor by AMD PCS ("AuthenticAMD" 586-class) 434 MHz
Probably affected, too, I suppose... Regarding SPARC I've actually seen conflicting reports. Go figure. But at least some of them have the out-of-order execution feature. |

Raspberry Pi are not sure, but they believe that Raspberry Pi hardware is not affected.

Someone posted this link in a comment on undeadly:

This is why I have for the longest time been saying that Linux/x86 is a bad thing to have take over the world. There should and need to be more options than just Linux and just x86_64.
The world still needs mainframes and it still needs AIX and Solaris. The world still needs Z, POWER, SPARC. |
