Both ARM_SSBD and ssbd_state are shared across cores while ssbd_callback_required is per-cpu. Does ssbd_callback_required really need to be per-cpu? Do we need both variables? For instance, we could just return ssbd_state == ARM_SSBD_RUNTIME instead of this_cpu(ssbd_callback_required)? > + arm_smccc_1_1_smc(ARM_SMCCC_ARCH_WORKAROUND_2_FID, 1, NULL); > + } > + > + break; > + > + case ARM_SSBD_FORCE_ENABLE: > + { > + static bool once = true; > + > + if ( once ) > + printk("%s forced from command-line\n", entry->desc); > + once = false; > + > + arm_smccc_1_1_smc(ARM_SMCCC_ARCH_WORKAROUND_2_FID, 1, NULL); > + required = true; This function is supposed to detect whether a workaround is needed, not enable it, right?
