            Bug ID: 229215
           Summary: hw.spec_store_bypass_disable_active=3D0 when
                    hw.spec_store_bypass_disable=3D1 on AMD CPU
           Product: Base System
           Version: 11.1-STABLE
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: kern
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: pkubaj@anongoth.pl

I have two boxes with AMD Opteron 6262HE and 6386SE.

Both are reportedly vulnerable to Spectre v4, but it's reported that they d=
on't
need new microcode, only kernel patches.

I'm running 11-STABLE and have hw.spec_store_bypass_disable=3D1.

Even then I can see that hw.spec_store_bypass_disable_active is 0.

On another PC, with new Intel microcode from platomav repo,
hw.spec_store_bypass_disable_active is 1, which suggests that something is
wrong with SSBD for AMD.
