Subject: [PATCH v11 16/18] x86/fsgsbase/64: Enable FSGSBASE on 64bit by default and add a chicken bit
Date: Sat, 9 May 2020 13:36:53 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200509173655.13977-17-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200509173655.13977-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org>
Now that FSGSBASE is fully supported, remove unsafe_fsgsbase, enable
FSGSBASE by default, and add nofsgsbase to disable it.
While this changes userspace visible ABI, we could not find a project
that would be affected by this. Few projects were contacted for input
and ack:
- 5-level EPT: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/9ddf602b-6c8b-8c1e-ab46-07ed12366593@redhat.com
