    Subject[PATCH v6 00/10] Retpoline: Avoid speculative indirect calls in kernel
    Date
    This is a mitigation for the 'variant 2' attack described in
    https://googleprojectzero.blogspot.com/2018/01/reading-privileged-memory-with-side.html

    Using GCC patches available from the hjl/indirect/gcc-7-branch/master
    branch of https://github.com/hjl-tools/gcc/commits/hjl and by manually
    patching assembler code, all vulnerable indirect branches (that occur
    after userspace first runs) are eliminated from the kernel.

    They are replaced with a 'retpoline' call sequence which deliberately
    prevents speculation.

    Fedora 27 packages of the updated compiler are available at
    https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=24065739


    v1: Initial post.
    v2: Add CONFIG_RETPOLINE to build kernel without it.
    Change warning messages.
    Hide modpost warning message
    v3: Update to the latest CET-capable retpoline version
    Reinstate ALTERNATIVE support
    v4: Finish reconciling Andi's and my patch sets, bug fixes.
    Exclude objtool support for now
    Add 'noretpoline' boot option
    Add AMD retpoline alternative
    v5: Silence MODVERSIONS warnings
    Use pause;jmp loop instead of lfence;jmp
    Switch to X86_FEATURE_RETPOLINE positive feature logic
    Emit thunks inline from assembler macros
    Merge AMD support into initial patch
    v6: Update to latest GCC patches with no dots in symbols
    Fix MODVERSIONS properly(ish)
    Fix typo breaking 32-bit, introduced in V5
    Never set X86_FEATURE_RETPOLINE_AMD yet, pending confirmation

    Andi Kleen (3):
    x86/retpoline/irq32: Convert assembler indirect jumps
    x86/retpoline: Add boot time option to disable retpoline
    x86/retpoline: Exclude objtool with retpoline

    David Woodhouse (7):
    x86/retpoline: Add initial retpoline support
    x86/retpoline/crypto: Convert crypto assembler indirect jumps
    x86/retpoline/entry: Convert entry assembler indirect jumps
    x86/retpoline/ftrace: Convert ftrace assembler indirect jumps
    x86/retpoline/hyperv: Convert assembler indirect jumps
    x86/retpoline/xen: Convert Xen hypercall indirect jumps
    x86/retpoline/checksum32: Convert assembler indirect jumps
