18.7.2. Known Issues / Limitations - 5.2 English - 57404

Platform Support Limitations:

• Library designed specifically for AMD Zen architecture

• No plans to support other x86 implementations (Intel, VIA, etc.)

• Some utilities may fail or behave unexpectedly on older AMD architectures (pre-Zen)

• Non-AMD CPUs will be correctly identified (not an error)

Windows Testing Limitations:

• Tests disabled on Windows

• Reason: QEMU-user unavailable on Windows

• Impact: Cannot run full test suite on Windows builds

• Mitigation: Test on Linux or rely on pre-release testing

Deprecated API Warnings:

• Old ALCI APIs (Bcl/alci/*) deprecated since version 4.2

• Will be removed in a future release

• Workaround: Enable with AU_ENABLE_OLD_API=ON if needed

• Recommendation: Migrate to new APIs (Au::X86Cpu, au_cpuid_*)
