+- Clang supports the ``-mretpoline`` flag to enable `retpolines
+  <https://support.google.com/faqs/answer/7625886>`_. Code compiled with this
+  flag will be hardened against variant #2 of the Spectre attack. Indirect
+  branches from switches or gotos removed from the code, and indirect calls
+  will be made through a "retpoline" thunk. The necessary thunks will
+  automatically be inserted into the generated code. Clang also supports
+  ``-mretpoline-external-thunk`` which works like ``-mretpoline`` but requires
+  the user to provide their own thunk definitions. The external thunk names
+  start with ``__x86_indirect_thunk_`` and end in a register name. For 64-bit
+  platforms, only an ``r11`` thunk is used, but for 32-bit platforms ``eax``,
+  ``ecx``, ``edx``, and ``edi`` thunks are used.
