commit 396d2e878f92ec108e4293f1c77ea3bc90b414ff upstream. The host reports support for the synthetic feature X86_FEATURE_SSBD when any of the three following hardware features are set: CPUID.(EAX=7,ECX=0):EDX.SSBD[bit 31] CPUID.80000008H:EBX.AMD_SSBD[bit 24] CPUID.80000008H:EBX.VIRT_SSBD[bit 25] Either of the first two hardware features implies the existence of the IA32_SPEC_CTRL MSR, but CPUID.80000008H:EBX.VIRT_SSBD[bit 25] does not. Therefore, CPUID.(EAX=7,ECX=0):EDX.SSBD[bit 31] should only be set in the guest if CPUID.(EAX=7,ECX=0):EDX.SSBD[bit 31] or CPUID.80000008H:EBX.AMD_SSBD[bit 24] is set on the host.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
