Subject: [RESEND PATCH v6 10/12] x86/fsgsbase/64: Enable FSGSBASE by default and add a chicken bit
Date: Fri, 15 Mar 2019 13:06:43 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1552680405-5265-11-git-send-email-chang.seok.bae@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1552680405-5265-1-git-send-email-chang.seok.bae@intel.com>
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.
