Some SVE APIs removed

  • Article

Several APIs that take a 32-bit address as an input parameter have been removed because of lack of testing with such addresses. These APIs might be re-enabled in the future when relevant test coverage is added.

Previous behavior

In previous versions, these APIs were available.

New behavior

Starting in .NET 9, these APIs aren't available.

Version introduced

.NET 9 RC 2

Type of breaking change

This change can affect source compatibility.

Reason for change

The affected APIs were removed because of lack of testing of 32-bit addresses. The affected APIs might be re-enabled in the future when relevant test coverage is added.

Stop using the removed APIs and instead use the overloads that take 64-bit addresses as input.
