Fix Retpoline detection for Linux 6.9+ (issue #490) #495

Closed famzah closed 3 months ago

famzah commented 4 months ago

This fixes the detection for Linux versions 6.9+ and is also backward compatible with the older kernel versions.

I've directly used the proposed fix in issue #490. Additionally, I've also fixed the info messages that are displayed when Retpoline is not enabled.

@speed47, I will appreciate it if you merge this. It already has been tested by the original author and me.

Thanks for the fix, I'll also look into the original issue to fix the other config name changes that were noticed.
