[ Upstream commit ce0abef6a1d540acef85068e0e82bdf1fbeeb0e9 ] Explicitly disallow enabling mitigations at runtime for kernels that were built with CONFIG_CPU_MITIGATIONS=n, as some architectures may omit code entirely if mitigations are disabled at compile time. E.g. on x86, a large pile of Kconfigs are buried behind CPU_MITIGATIONS, and trying to provide sane behavior for retroactively enabling mitigations is extremely difficult, bordering on impossible. E.g. page table isolation and call depth tracking require build-time support, BHI mitigations will still be off without additional kernel parameters, etc. [ bp: Touchups. ] Signed-off-by: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com> Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov (AMD) <bp@alien8.de> Acked-by: Borislav Petkov (AMD) <bp@alien8.de> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240420000556.2645001-3-seanjc@google.com Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
