commitfca3d33d8aupstream. When all CPUs in the system implement the SSBS extension, the SSBS field in PSTATE is the definitive indication of the mitigation state. Further, when the CPUs implement the SSBS manipulation instructions (advertised to userspace via an HWCAP), EL0 can toggle the SSBS field directly and so we cannot rely on any shadow state such as TIF_SSBD at all. Avoid forcing the SSBS field in context-switch on such a system, and simply rely on the PSTATE register instead.

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.
