How to disable retpoline?












-1















I need to disable retpoline for a use case. I tried adding noretpoline to the boot parameter but it doesn't seem to work.
The output after adding noretpoline param:



$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/spectre_v2
Mitigation: Full generic retpoline, STIBP: disabled, RSB filling


Kernel: 4.18.0-58.el8.x86_64

          To disable retpoline, you need to disable the Spectre variant 2 mitigations using spectre_v2=off on the kernel command line. See the kernel’s list of parameters for details (that link is specifically for 4.18; for other versions, replace “v4.18” in the URL as appropriate).
