According to Phoronix Elena Demikhovksy, Senior Software Engineer at Chipzilla said that Cannonlake CPUs have AVX-512 support. It is unlikely to appear on all Cannonlakes processor as Chipzilla will likely disable it on many mainstream processor models such as the Core i3 and Core i5 it will be a feature in the higher-end Core i7. The chips will also have SHA Extensions and UMIP.
