Linus Torvalds 4a01e748a5 - Mitigate Spectre v2-type Branch History Buffer attacks on machines ... which support eIBRS, i.e., the hardware-assisted speculation restriction after it has been shown that such machines are vulnerable even with the hardware mitigation. - Do not use the default LFENCE-based Spectre v2 mitigation on AMD as it is insufficient to mitigate such attacks. Instead, switch to retpolines on all AMD by default. - Update the docs and add some warnings for the obviously vulnerable cmdline configurations. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAABCgAdFiEEzv7L6UO9uDPlPSfHEsHwGGHeVUoFAmIkktUACgkQEsHwGGHe VUo7ZQ/+O4hzL/tHY0V/ekkDxCrJ3q3Hp+DcxUl2ee5PC3Qgxv1Z1waH6ppK8jQs marAGr7FYbvzY039ON7irxhpSIckBCpx9tM2F43zsPxxY8EdxGojkHbmaqso5HtW l3/O28AcZYoKN/fF8rRAIJy4hrTVascKrNJ2fOiYWYBT62ZIoPm0FusgXbKTZPD+ gT7iUMoyPjBnKdWDT9L6kKOxDF9TivX1Y6JdDHbnnBsgRkeFatkeq9BJ93M73q63 Ziq9c8ZcEXyKez+cGFCfXM7+pNYmfsiL48lilTyf+v+GXahDJQOkFw39j5zXEALm Nk6yB3PRQ74pEwm5WbK7KO8iwPpblmnDB978mfUcpk+9xWJD8pyoUcItAmCBsXh1 LjIImYPqL6YihUb9udh+PEDISsfzWNzr4T+kgW9/yXXG4ZmGy3TLInhTK+rNAxJa EshWZExEZj6yJvt83Vu08W9fppYJq976tJvl8LWOYthaxqY7IQz0q7mYd799yxk0 MLPqvZP1+4pHzqn2c9yeHgrwHwMmoqcyMx6B3EA5maYQPdlT7Fk9RCBeCdIA/ieF OgGxy1WwMH+cvUa5MaBy3Y32LeYU3bUJh0yPFq/7BxEYGG9PJtLhg2xTo1Ui8F1d fKrcSFcjZKVJ9UE5HaqOcp4ka+Q220I9IDGURXkAFQlnOU7X7CE= =Athd -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'x86_bugs_for_v5.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull x86 spectre fixes from Borislav Petkov: - Mitigate Spectre v2-type Branch History Buffer attacks on machines which support eIBRS, i.e., the hardware-assisted speculation restriction after it has been shown that such machines are vulnerable even with the hardware mitigation. - Do not use the default LFENCE-based Spectre v2 mitigation on AMD as it is insufficient to mitigate such attacks.
