[PATCH v4 6/7] x86/cpu: Support AMD Automatic IBRS

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The AMD Zen4 core supports a new feature called Automatic IBRS.

It is a "set-and-forget" feature that means that, like
Intel's Enhanced IBRS, h/w manages its IBRS mitigation
resources automatically across CPL transitions.

The feature is advertised by CPUID_Fn80000021_EAX bit 8 and is
enabled by setting MSR C000_0080 (EFER) bit 21.

Enable Automatic IBRS by default if the CPU feature is present.
It typically provides greater performance over the incumbent
generic retpolines mitigation.

Reuse the SPECTRE_V2_EIBRS spectre_v2_mitigation enum.
AMD Automatic IBRS and Intel Enhanced IBRS have similar
bugs.c enablement.  Add NO_EIBRS_PBRSB to cpu_vuln_whitelist,
since AMD Automatic IBRS isn't affected by PBRSB-eIBRS.

Also allow for spectre_v2=autoibrs on the kernel command line.
'spectre_v2=autoibrs,retpoline' and 'autoibrs,lfence' are
honoured but not required.  AutoIBRS will also be enabled if
the =eibrs[,{lfence,retpoline}] variants are specified.
