From a08691dfbbb34c425bc06b8106c4ce116e745789 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mark H Weaver Date: Sun, 21 May 2017 01:47:09 -0400 Subject: gnu: linux-libre: Remove CONFIG_SMC from x86 kernel configurations. This removes support for the "shared memory communications over RDMA" (SMC-R) networking protocol, which was added in 4.11 without the knowledge of the RDMA maintainers, and which is thought to contain significant security flaws.
