[Xen-devel] [PATCH for-4.13 0/2] xen/nospec: Add Kconfig options for speculative hardening



The main purpose is patch 2.  The "l1tf-barrier" work currently causes a perf
hit and gains no safety, and is therefore unfit for inclusion into Xen 4.13 at
this time.

Andrew Cooper (2):
  xen/nospec: Introduce CONFIG_SPECULATIVE_ARRAY_HARDEN
  xen/nospec: Introduce CONFIG_SPECULATIVE_BRANCH_HARDEN and disable it
