      KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Flush link stack on guest exit to host kernel · e2c87b1b
      Michael Ellerman authored 
      commit af2e8c68 upstream.

On some systems that are vulnerable to Spectre v2, it is up to
software to flush the link stack (return address stack), in order to
protect against Spectre-RSB.

When exiting from a guest we do some house keeping and then
potentially exit to C code which is several stack frames deep in the
host kernel. We will then execute a series of returns without
preceeding calls, opening up the possiblity that the guest could have
poisoned the link stack, and direct speculative execution of the host
to a gadget of some sort.

To prevent this we add a flush of the link stack on exit from a guest.

      powerpc/book3s64: Fix link stack flush on context switch · 113408cd
      Michael Ellerman authored 
      commit 39e72bf9 upstream.

In commit ee13cb24 ("powerpc/64s: Add support for software count
cache flush"), I added support for software to flush the count
cache (indirect branch cache) on context switch if firmware told us
that was the required mitigation for Spectre v2.

As part of that code we also added a software flush of the link
stack (return address stack), which protects against Spectre-RSB
between user processes.

That is all correct for CPUs that activate that mitigation, which is
currently Power9 Nimbus DD2.3.

What I got wrong is that on older CPUs, where firmware has disabled
the count cache, we also need to flush the link stack on context
switch.

To fix it we create a new feature bit which is not set by firmware,
which tells us we need to flush the link stack. We set that when
firmware tells us that either of the existing Spectre v2 mitigations
are enabled.

Then we adjust the patching code so that if we see that feature bit we
enable the link stack flush. If we're also told to flush the count
cache in software then we fall through and do that also.

On the older CPUs we don't need to do do the software count cache
flush, firmware has disabled it, so in that case we patch in an early
return after the link stack flush.

The naming of some of the functions is awkward after this patch,
because they're called "count cache" but they also do link stack. But
we'll fix that up in a later commit to ease backporting.

This is the fix for CVE-2019-18660.

      Christopher M. Riedl authored 
      commit d8f0e0b0 upstream.

Add support for disabling the kernel implemented spectre v2 mitigation
(count cache flush on context switch) via the nospectre_v2 and
mitigations=off cmdline options.

      staging: comedi: usbduxfast: usbduxfast_ai_cmdtest rounding error · 86f35864
      Bernd Porr authored 
      commit 5618332e upstream.

The userspace comedilib function 'get_cmd_generic_timed' fills
the cmd structure with an informed guess and then calls the
function 'usbduxfast_ai_cmdtest' in this driver repeatedly while
'usbduxfast_ai_cmdtest' is modifying the cmd struct until it
no longer changes. However, because of rounding errors this never
converged because 'steps = (cmd->convert_arg * 30) / 1000' and then
back to 'cmd->convert_arg = (steps * 1000) / 30' won't be the same
because of rounding errors. 'Steps' should only be converted back to
the 'convert_arg' if 'steps' has actually been modified. In addition
the case of steps being 0 wasn't checked which is also now done.

      USB: serial: option: add support for Foxconn T77W968 LTE modules · 604b4b88
      Aleksander Morgado authored 
      commit f0797095 upstream.

These are the Foxconn-branded variants of the Dell DW5821e modules,
same USB layout as those. The device exposes AT, NMEA and DIAG ports
in both USB configurations.
