+Subject: [PATCH] module/retpoline: Warn about missing retpoline in module
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+There's a risk that a kernel which has full retpoline mitigations becomes
+vulnerable when a module gets loaded that hasn't been compiled with the
+right compiler or the right option.
+
+To enable detection of that mismatch at module load time, add a module info
+string "retpoline" at build time when the module was compiled with
+retpoline support. This only covers compiled C source, but assembler source
+or prebuilt object files are not checked.
+
+If a retpoline enabled kernel detects a non retpoline protected module at
+load time, print a warning and report it in the sysfs vulnerability file.
