Hello,

i installed v4.17-rc6 and this problem seems fixed, no emtpy line in 
/proc/PID/status, but i also miss the line Speculation_Store_Bypass which was 
existing in 4.4.0-127-generic #153-Ubuntu
So may be this is fixed because meltdown/spectre patches are not applied? Iam 
not sure, so i hesitate to set tag kernel-fixed-upstream.
What do you think?

For information: I could not install linux-
headers-4.17.0-041700rc6-generic, there is a dependency to libssl1.1
which is not available currently for xenial.

Thanks

  Hello,

  after running updates today to linux-
  image-4.4.0-127-generic_4.4.0-127.153 and rebooting i noticed that
  iotop is not working any more. Reason are empty lines in
  /proc/PID/status, which confuse iotop (and me)

  In new view there is an empy line between Seccomp and
  Speculation_Store_Bypass:

  ####
  Seccomp:        0

  Speculation_Store_Bypass:       vulnerable
  ####
  Speculation_Store_Bypass seems to be new in /proc/PID/status, may be a 
relation to spectre/meltdown patches.

  iotop is first application which is failing here, but iam afraid of
  more.

  Thanks
