Subject: [PATCH V2 07/15] x86/fsgsbase/64: Add 'unsafe_fsgsbase' to enable CR4.FSGSBASE
Date: Thu, 31 May 2018 10:58:37 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1527789525-8857-8-git-send-email-chang.seok.bae@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1527789525-8857-1-git-send-email-chang.seok.bae@intel.com>

From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org>

This is temporary.  It will allow the next few patches to be tested
incrementally.

Setting unsafe_fsgsbase is a root hole.  Don't do it.

[chang: Fix the deactivated flag. Add TAINT_INSECURE flag.]
