Subject: [MODERATED] [PATCH] NX build fixup
Date: Fri, 1 Nov 2019 15:43:31 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191101154157.GA24333@sec> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20191101145835.GA9011@elm>

Subject: [PATCH] cpu/speculation: Uninline and export CPU mitigations helpers

A kernel module may need to check the value of the "mitigations=" kernel
command line parameter as part of its setup when the module needs
to perform software mitigations for a CPU flaw. Uninline and export the
helper functions surrounding the cpu_mitigations enum to allow for their
usage from a module.

Signed-off-by: Tyler Hicks <tyhicks@canonical.com>
---

Only compile tested, with both CONFIG_KVM=y and CONFIG_KVM=m. Paolo, if
this looks good to you and Pawan, please include it in NX v9.
