vmpoff= [KNL,S390] Perform z/VM CP command after power off.
Format: <command>

vsyscall= [X86-64]
Controls the behavior of vsyscalls (i.e. calls to
fixed addresses of 0xffffffffff600x00 from legacy
code). Most statically-linked binaries and older
versions of glibc use these calls. Because these
functions are at fixed addresses, they make nice
targets for exploits that can control RIP.

emulate [default] Vsyscalls turn into traps and are
emulated reasonably safely.

native Vsyscalls are native syscall instructions.
This is a little bit faster than trapping
and makes a few dynamic recompilers work
better than they would in emulation mode.
It also makes exploits much easier to write.

none Vsyscalls don't work at all. This makes
them quite hard to use for exploits but
might break your system.
