Looking at my lkml mailbox, patch 02 of 37 for this version added KAISER, including apparently CONFIG_KAISER - but it depends on x86_64. Hmm, looking at 4.14.12 PAGE_TABLE_ISOLATION also depends on x86_64. Looks like there is nothing for 32-bit x86. Sorry. I'm afraid 32-bit x86 gets much less love these days. ĸen -- Truth, in front of her huge walk-in wardrobe, selected black leather boots with stiletto heels for such a barefaced truth. - Unseen Academicals -- http://lists.linuxfromscratch.org/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page Do not top post on this list.
