We have posted this blog on this topic: https://www.suse.com/c/suse-addresses-the-l1-terminal-fault-issue/ The general guidance on how to potentially change SMT settings when hosting VMs with untrusted guest Operating Systems is described in the TIDs: https://www.suse.com/support/kb/doc/?id=7023077 and https://www.suse.com/support/kb/doc/?id=7023078 Ciao, Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
