Stale Data. They are a class of MMIO-related weaknesses which can expose stale data by propagating it into core fill buffers. Data which can then be leaked using the usual speculative execution methods. Mitigations include this set along with microcode updates and are similar to MDS and TAA vulnerabilities: VERW now clears those buffers too. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJGBAABCgAxFiEEQp8+kY+LLUocC4bMphj1TA10mKEFAmKXMkMTHHRnbHhAbGlu dXRyb25peC5kZQAKCRCmGPVMDXSYoWGPD/idalLIhhV5F2+hZIKm0WSnsBxAOh9K 7y8xBxpQQ5FUfW3vm7Pg3ro6VJp7w2CzKoD4lGXzGHriusn3qst3vkza9Ay8xu8g RDwKe6hI+p+Il9BV9op3f8FiRLP9bcPMMReW/mRyYsOnJe59hVNwRAL8OG40PY4k hZgg4Psfvfx8bwiye5efjMSe4fXV7BUCkr601+8kVJoiaoszkux9mqP+cnnB5P3H zW1d1jx7d6eV1Y063h7WgiNqQRYv0bROZP5BJkufIoOHUXDpd65IRF3bDnCIvSEz KkMYJNXb3qh7EQeHS53NL+gz2EBQt+Tq1VH256qn6i3mcHs85HvC68gVrAkfVHJE QLJE3MoXWOqw+mhwzCRrEXN9O1lT/PqDWw8I4M/5KtGG/KnJs+bygmfKBbKjIVg4 2yQWfMmOgQsw3GWCRjgEli7aYbDJQjany0K/qZTq54I41gu+TV8YMccaWcXgDKrm cXFGUfOg4gBm4IRjJ/RJn+mUv6u+/3sLVqsaFTs9aiib1dpBSSUuMGBh548Ft7g2 5VbFVSDaLjB2BdlcG7enlsmtzw0ltNssmqg7jTK/L7XNVnvxwUoXw+zP7RmCLEYt UV4FHXraMKNt2ZketlomC8ui2hg73ylUp4pPdMXCp7PIXp9sVamRTbpz12h689VJ /s55bWxHkR6S =LBxT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'x86-bugs-2022-06-01' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull x86 MMIO stale data fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "Yet another hw vulnerability with a software mitigation: Processor MMIO Stale Data.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
