From 989c0a1dc345ef7e97c64e38957b58b236f2a262 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Wed, 20 Apr 2022 11:53:22 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] x86,bugs: Unconditionally allow spectre_v2=retpoline,amd stable inclusion from stable-v4.19.234 commit 1dd7efcfcccee59c974f56848739d4f5a5a570c7 category: bugfix bugzilla: 186453, https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/I50WBM CVE: CVE-2022-0001 -------------------------------- commit f8a66d608a3e471e1202778c2a36cbdc96bae73b upstream. Currently Linux prevents usage of retpoline,amd on !AMD hardware, this is unfriendly and gets in the way of testing. Remove this restriction.
