This adds three new capabilities that give userspace information about the underlying machine's level of vulnerability to the Meltdown and Spectre attacks, and what instructions the hardware implements to assist software to work around the vulnerabilities. Each capability is a tri-state, where 0 indicates that the machine is vulnerable and no workarounds are implement, 1 indicates that the machine is vulnerable but workaround assist instructions are available, and 2 indicates that the machine is not vulnerable. The capabilities are: KVM_CAP_PPC_SAFE_CACHE reports the vulnerability of the machine to attacks based on using speculative loads to data in L1 cache which should not be addressable. The workaround provided by hardware is an instruction to invalidate the entire L1 data cache. KVM_CAP_PPC_SAFE_BOUNDS_CHECK reports the vulnerability of the machine to attacks based on using speculative loads behind mispredicted bounds checks. The workaround provided by hardware is an instruction that acts as a speculation barrier. KVM_CAP_PPC_SAFE_INDIRECT_BRANCH reports the vulnerability of the machine to attacks based on poisoning the indirect branch predictor. No workaround that requires software changes is provided; the current hardware fix is to prevent speculation past indirect branches.
