Subject: [PATCH v6 04/21] x86/bugs: Define attack vectors relevant for each bug
Date: Mon, 7 Jul 2025 13:32:59 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250707183316.1349127-5-david.kaplan@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250707183316.1349127-1-david.kaplan@amd.com>

Add a function which defines which vulnerabilities should be mitigated
based on the selected attack vector controls.  The selections here are
based on the individual characteristics of each vulnerability.
