The SDK is not proprietary. This is available on IDZ with a permissible license and includes a plain C code implementation in case there is no AVX512 isa on the CPU.

Again the SDK is available on the IDZ with a permissible license and includes a plain C implementation.

CI would not fail. 
We can discuss further offline later this week as there seems to be some confusion still.
