You could have removed the .sh ending on the executable, looks nicer on the commandline ;-)

Actually, running as super user was the fix. And I got all No's, which I expected.

@Kakashi-sensei: tried "modprobe msr" yet?

What can I do to resolve the following (I have an AMD FX 8350):

* SPEC_CTRL MSR is available:  UNKNOWN  (couldn't read /dev/cpu/0/msr, is msr support enabled in your kernel?)

* CPU indicates IBRS capability:  UNKNOWN  (couldn't read /dev/cpu/0/cpuid, is cpuid support enabled in your kernel?)
  • Indirect Branch Prediction Barrier (IBPB)

    • PRED_CMD MSR is available: UNKNOWN (couldn't read /dev/cpu/0/msr, is msr support enabled in your kernel?)

    • CPU indicates IBPB capability: UNKNOWN (couldn't read /dev/cpu/0/cpuid, is cpuid support enabled in your kernel?)

  • Single Thread Indirect Branch Predictors (STIBP)

    • SPEC_CTRL MSR is available: UNKNOWN (couldn't read /dev/cpu/0/msr, is msr support enabled in your kernel?)

    • CPU indicates STIBP capability: UNKNOWN (couldn't read /dev/cpu/0/cpuid, is cpuid support enabled in your kernel?)

  • Enhanced IBRS (IBRS_ALL)

    • CPU indicates ARCH_CAPABILITIES MSR availability: UNKNOWN (couldn't read /dev/cpu/0/cpuid, is cpuid support enabled in your kernel?)
