Hi Everyone
We have new servers with AMD EPYC™ 9274F processors.
I am looking for the information about any moves I need to do to patch Spectre and Meltdown.
My environment is based on ESXi and Windows Server VMs. On my old servers based on Intel I had to use below registry keys to patch my environment
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management" /v FeatureSettingsOverride
REG_DWORD 0
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management" /v FeatureSettingsOverrideMask
REG_DWORD 3
"HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Virtualization" /v MinVmVersionForCpuBasedMitigations
REG_SZ "1.0"
Do I have to use any mitigations on EPYC 9274F CPU?
and one more question
If any mitigation is not needed, can I leave above registry keys on my WIndows Servers or I have to remove them to do not affect CPS performance?
