It's getting more and more complicated to decide which mitigations are needed for a given architecture. Complicating matters is the fact that each arch tends to it own custom way to mitigate the same vulnerability. Most users fall into a few basic categories: a) they want all CPU speculation mitigations off; b) they want all reasonable mitigations on, with SMT enabled even if it's vulnerable; or c) they want all reasonable mitigations on, with SMT disabled if vulnerable. Define a set of curated, arch-independent options, each of which is an aggregation of existing options: - cpu_spec_mitigations=off: Disable all mitigations. - cpu_spec_mitigations=auto: [default] Enable all the default mitigations, but leave SMT enabled, even if it's vulnerable. - cpu_spec_mitigations=auto,nosmt: Enable all the default mitigations, disabling SMT if needed by a mitigation.
