This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled [Variant 1/Spectre-v1] arm64: barrier: Add CSDB macros to control data-value prediction to the 4.15-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: arm64-barrier-add-csdb-macros-to-control-data-value-prediction.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.15 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Tue Feb 13 17:25:10 CET 2018 From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@xxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 5 Feb 2018 15:34:16 +0000 Subject: [Variant 1/Spectre-v1] arm64: barrier: Add CSDB macros to control data-value prediction From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@xxxxxxx> Commit 669474e772b9 upstream. For CPUs capable of data value prediction, CSDB waits for any outstanding predictions to architecturally resolve before allowing speculative execution to continue. Provide macros to expose it to the arch code.
