  +  	tsx=		[X86] Control Transactional Synchronization
  +  			Extensions (TSX) feature in Intel processors that
  +  			support TSX control.
  +  
  +  			This parameter controls the TSX feature. The options are:
  +  
  +  			on	- Enable TSX on the system. Although there are
  +  				mitigations for all known security vulnerabilities,
  +  				TSX has been known to be an accelerator for
  +  				several previous speculation-related CVEs, and
  +  				so there may be unknown	security risks associated
  +  				with leaving it enabled.
  +  
  +  			off	- Disable TSX on the system. (Note that this
  +  				option takes effect only on newer CPUs which are
  +  				not vulnerable to MDS, i.e., have
  +  				MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES.MDS_NO=1 and which get
  +  				the new IA32_TSX_CTRL MSR through a microcode
  +  				update. This new MSR allows for the reliable
  +  				deactivation of the TSX functionality.)
  +  
  +  			auto	- Disable TSX if X86_BUG_TAA is present,
  +  				  otherwise enable TSX on the system.
  +  
  +  			Not specifying this option is equivalent to tsx=off.
  +  
  +  			See Documentation/admin-guide/hw-vuln/tsx_async_abort.rst
  +  			for more details.
  +  
  +  	tsx_async_abort= [X86,INTEL] Control mitigation for the TSX Async
  +  			Abort (TAA) vulnerability.
  +  
  +  			Similar to Micro-architectural Data Sampling (MDS)
  +  			certain CPUs that support Transactional
  +  			Synchronization Extensions (TSX) are vulnerable to an
  +  			exploit against CPU internal buffers which can forward
  +  			information to a disclosure gadget under certain
  +  			conditions.
  +  
  +  			In vulnerable processors, the speculatively forwarded
  +  			data can be used in a cache side channel attack, to
  +  			access data to which the attacker does not have direct
  +  			access.
  +  
  +  			This parameter controls the TAA mitigation.  The
  +  			options are:
  +  
  +  			full       - Enable TAA mitigation on vulnerable CPUs
  +  				     if TSX is enabled.
  +  
  +  			full,nosmt - Enable TAA mitigation and disable SMT on
  +  				     vulnerable CPUs. If TSX is disabled, SMT
  +  				     is not disabled because CPU is not
  +  				     vulnerable to cross-thread TAA attacks.
  +  			off        - Unconditionally disable TAA mitigation
  +  
  ++ 			On MDS-affected machines, tsx_async_abort=off can be
  ++ 			prevented by an active MDS mitigation as both vulnerabilities
  ++ 			are mitigated with the same mechanism so in order to disable
  ++ 			this mitigation, you need to specify mds=off too.
  ++ 
  +  			Not specifying this option is equivalent to
  +  			tsx_async_abort=full.  On CPUs which are MDS affected
  +  			and deploy MDS mitigation, TAA mitigation is not
  +  			required and doesn't provide any additional
  +  			mitigation.
