Submit Notes

 The numactl mechanism was used to bind copies to processors. The config file option 'submit'
 was used to generate numactl commands to bind each copy to a specific processor.
 For details, please see the config file.

    Warning: Use caution when you interpret this section. The 'dmidecode' program
    reads system data which is "intended to allow hardware to be accurately
    determined", but the intent may not be met, as there are frequent changes to
    hardware, firmware, and the "DMTF SMBIOS" standard.

 No: The test sponsor attests, as of date of publication, that CVE-2017-5754 (Meltdown)
 is mitigated in the system as tested and documented.
 No: The test sponsor attests, as of date of publication, that CVE-2017-5753 (Spectre variant 1)
 is mitigated in the system as tested and documented.
 No: The test sponsor attests, as of date of publication, that CVE-2017-5715 (Spectre variant 2)
 is mitigated in the system as tested and documented.

This benchmark result is intended to provide perspective on
past performance using the historical hardware and/or
software described on this result page.

The system as described on this result page was formerly
generally available.  At the time of this publication, it may
not be shipping, and/or may not be supported, and/or may fail
to meet other tests of General Availability described in the
SPEC OSG Policy document, http://www.spec.org/osg/policy.html

This measured result may not be representative of the result
that would be measured were this benchmark run with hardware
and software available as of the publication date.
