      x86/speculation/mmio: Add mitigation for Processor MMIO Stale Data · 8cb861e9
      Pawan Gupta authored
      Processor MMIO Stale Data is a class of vulnerabilities that may
      expose data after an MMIO operation. For details please refer to
      Documentation/admin-guide/hw-vuln/processor_mmio_stale_data.rst.
      
      These vulnerabilities are broadly categorized as:
      
      Device Register Partial Write (DRPW):
        Some endpoint MMIO registers incorrectly handle writes that are
        smaller than the register size. Instead of aborting the write or only
        copying the correct subset of bytes (for example, 2 bytes for a 2-byte
        write), more bytes than specified by the write transaction may be
        written to the register. On some processors, this may expose stale
        data from the fill buffers of the core that created the write
        transaction.
      
      Shared Buffers Data Sampling (SBDS):
        After propagators may have moved data around the uncore and copied
        stale data into client core fill buffers, processors affected by MFBDS
        can leak data from the fill buffer.
      
      Shared Buffers Data Read (SBDR):
        It is similar to Shared Buffer Data Sampling (SBDS) except that the
        data is directly read into the architectural software-visible state.
      
      An attacker can use these vulnerabilities to extract data from CPU fill
      buffers using MDS and TAA methods. Mitigate it by clearing the CPU fill
      buffers using the VERW instruction before returning to a user or a
      guest.
      
      On CPUs not affected by MDS and TAA, user application cannot sample data
      from CPU fill buffers using MDS or TAA. A guest with MMIO access can
      still use DRPW or SBDR to extract data architecturally. Mitigate it with
      VERW instruction to clear fill buffers before VMENTER for MMIO capable
      guests.
      
      Add a kernel parameter mmio_stale_data={off|full|full,nosmt} to control
      the mitigation.

      Pawan Gupta authored
      Processor MMIO Stale Data mitigation uses similar mitigation as MDS and
      TAA. In preparation for adding its mitigation, add a common function to
      update all mitigations that depend on MD_CLEAR.

          statements better. ]

      Pull driver core fixes from Greg KH:
       "Here is one fix, and three documentation updates for 5.18-rc7.
      
        The fix is for the firmware loader which resolves a long-reported
        problem where the credentials of the firmware loader could be set to a
        userspace process without enough permissions to actually load the
        firmware image. Many Android vendors have been reporting this for
        quite some time.
      
        The documentation updates are for the embargoed-hardware-issues.rst
        file to add a new entry, change an existing one, and sort the list to
        make changes easier in the future.
      
        All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
        issues"

       "A single fix for the handling of unpopulated sub-pmd spaces.
      
        The copy & pasta from the corresponding s390 code screwed up the
        address calculation for marking the sub-pmd ranges via memset by
        omitting the ALIGN_DOWN() to calculate the proper start address.
      
        It's a mystery why this code is not generic and shared because there
        is nothing architecture specific in there, but that's too intrusive
        for a backportable fix"

        make BPF cope with such a change, but it's being worked on. For now

       "A single fix for a recent (introduced in 5.16) regression in the core

        The consolidation of the interrupt handler invocation code added an
        unconditional warning when generic_handle_domain_irq() is invoked from
        outside hard interrupt context. That's overbroad as the requirement
        for invoking these handlers in hard interrupt context is only required
        for certain interrupt types. The subsequently called code already
        contains a warning which triggers conditionally for interrupt chips
        which indicate this requirement in their properties.
