[PATCH v6 03/21] x86/Kconfig: Add arch attack vector support
Posted by David Kaplan 2 months, 4 weeks ago
ARCH_HAS_CPU_ATTACK_VECTORS should be set for architectures which implement
the new attack-vector based controls for CPU mitigations.  If an arch does
not support attack-vector based controls then an attempt to use them
results in a warning.
