This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled [Variant 2/Spectre-v2] arm64: entry: Apply BP hardening for high-priority synchronous exceptions 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-entry-apply-bp-hardening-for-high-priority-synchronous-exceptions.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: Fri, 2 Feb 2018 17:31:39 +0000 Subject: [Variant 2/Spectre-v2] arm64: entry: Apply BP hardening for high-priority synchronous exceptions From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@xxxxxxx> Commit 5dfc6ed27710 upstream. Software-step and PC alignment fault exceptions have higher priority than instruction abort exceptions, so apply the BP hardening hooks there too if the user PC appears to reside in kernel space.
