The PR_SPEC_DISABLE_NOEXEC option to the PR_SPEC_STORE_BYPASS prctl() allows the SSB mitigation to be enabled only until the next execve(), at which point the state will revert back to PR_SPEC_ENABLE and the mitigation will be disabled. Add support for PR_SPEC_DISABLE_NOEXEC on arm64. Reported-by: Anthony Steinhauser <asteinhauser@google.com> Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will@kernel.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
