SDM rev. 068 was released yesterday and it contains the description of the MSR 0x10a IA32_ARCH_CAP. This change adds symbolic definitions for all bits present in the document, and decode them in the CPU identification lines printed on boot. But also, the document defines SSB_NO as bit 4, while FreeBSD used but 2 to detect the need to work-around Speculative Store Bypass issue. Change code to use the bit from SDM. Similarly, the document describes bit 3 as an indicator that L1TF issue is not present, in particular, no L1D flush is needed on VMENTRY. We used RDCL_NO to avoid flushing, and again I changed the code to follow new spec from SDM. In fact my Apollo Lake machine with latest ucode shows this: IA32_ARCH_CAPS=0x19<RDCL_NO,SKIP_L1DFL_VME,SSB_NO> Reviewed by: bwidawsk Sponsored by: The FreeBSD Foundation MFC after: 3 days Differential revision: https://reviews.freebsd.org/D18006

FreeBSD
FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
