- AnotherGoodName 3y agoI'm going to say microcode until someone reproduces on a completely different architecture :).
- jdiff 3y agoA lot of these mitigations are joint efforts between the kernel and CPU, and the mitigations kernel parameter isn't a binary on/off, you can configure individual mitigations. It's not a single flag that does signals the microcode to do spooky proprietary things.
