MSA is an optional extension for MIPS32/64 R5 revisions or later.
Kernel will report support for it in "ASEs implemented

MSA is an optional extension to MIPSr4 (I think r4 did not exist either, r5
does). Octeon 3 implements r5 but not MSA. It does have the
virtualization extension though.
After octeon 3, cavium/marvell is no longer working on MIPS cores. I dont
know of any other mainstream source for MIPS cores e

Thanks Andrew. It looks like I hit another dead end.
I'll look for
Octeon 2 does not have MSA. Octeon 2 does not have any SIMD extensions
implemented. Octeon 2 does not even have a floating point unit.
MSA is newer than MIPS64r2/3.
Thanks,

Hi Everyone,
https://cfarm.tetaneutral.net/machines/list/ says GCC22 to GCC24 is
mips64. The cpuinfo is below from GCC23. I can't tell if this machine
has MIPS SIMD Architecture (MSA) extensions.
I know the Cavium Octeon II/CN6120 should lead me to a spec sheet but
I am having trouble finding the
