[PATCH 3.16 76/99] KVM: x86: Protect x86_decode_insn from Spectre-v1/L1TF attacks

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

 



3.16.84-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Marios Pomonis <pomonis@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 3c9053a2cae7ba2ba73766a34cea41baa70f57f7 upstream.

This fixes a Spectre-v1/L1TF vulnerability in x86_decode_insn().
kvm_emulate_instruction() (an ancestor of x86_decode_insn()) is an exported
symbol, so KVM should treat it conservatively from a security perspective.

Fixes: 045a282ca415 ("KVM: emulator: implement fninit, fnstsw, fnstcw")
