Ok, so x86_64_BUG_CPU_INSECURE will be optional in kernel config.

As I read Meltdown is primary a security risk on server farms where
multiple customers use same CPU.

If I have my own private server on own hardware, and thereby have full
control over software in use, then I might get a performance boost by not
using x86_64_BUG_CPU_INSECURE and thereby use full standard speculative
execution.

Hello,

I talked yesterday Debian kernel team and was a work on Debian kernel for the 
latest stable, I think all users add to "x86_64_BUG_CPU_INSECURE" parameter 
.config file and add "= y" added and recompiled.

Hi Ozgur,

that's completely irrelevant. For Meltdown fix on Stretch/amd64, please
upgrade to the just published linux-image-4.9.0-5-amd64 version 4.9.65-3+deb9u2.

Hi Joe,

we are currently in the process of releasing updates addressing CVE-2017-5754
(meltdown) for Stretch.

Jessie will follow later, as well as fixes for Spectre if/when they are
available.

?Hi everyone,

Does anyone have any information about plans for releasing patches for the 
Intel vulnerability issues for Debian Jessie and/or Stretch? Any information 
would be really appreciated.


Thanks,
