I am fortunate enough to work on a production Rust service (a real one, not cryptocurrency nonsense).

Mitigations for Retbleed have found their way into the mainline kernel but, as of this writing, some remaining problems have kept them from the stable update releases. Mitigating Retbleed can impede performance severely, especially on some Intel processors. Thomas Gleixner and Peter Zijlstra think they have found a better way that bypasses the existing mitigations and misleads the processor's speculative-execution mechanisms instead.
