According to the SMCCC spec[1](7.5.2 Discovery) the ARM_SMCCC_ARCH_WORKAROUND_1 function id only returns 0, 1, and SMCCC_RET_NOT_SUPPORTED. 0 is "workaround required and safe to call this function" 1 is "workaround not required but safe to call this function" SMCCC_RET_NOT_SUPPORTED is "might be vulnerable or might not be, who knows, I give up!" SMCCC_RET_NOT_SUPPORTED might as well mean "workaround required, except calling this function may not work because it isn't implemented in some cases". Wonderful. We map this SMC call to 0 is SPECTRE_MITIGATED 1 is SPECTRE_UNAFFECTED SMCCC_RET_NOT_SUPPORTED is SPECTRE_VULNERABLE For KVM hypercalls (hvc), we've implemented this function id to return SMCCC_RET_NOT_SUPPORTED, 0, and SMCCC_RET_NOT_REQUIRED. One of those isn't supposed to be there. Per the code we call arm64_get_spectre_v2_state() to figure out what to return for this feature discovery call. 0 is SPECTRE_MITIGATED SMCCC_RET_NOT_REQUIRED is SPECTRE_UNAFFECTED SMCCC_RET_NOT_SUPPORTED is SPECTRE_VULNERABLE Let's clean this up so that KVM tells the guest this mapping: 0 is SPECTRE_MITIGATED 1 is SPECTRE_UNAFFECTED SMCCC_RET_NOT_SUPPORTED is SPECTRE_VULNERABLE Note: SMCCC_RET_NOT_AFFECTED is 1 but isn't part of the SMCCC spec Cc: Andre Przywara <andre.przywara@xxxxxxx> Cc: Steven Price <steven.price@xxxxxxx> Cc: Marc Zyngier <maz@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Link: https://developer.arm.com/documentation/den0028/latest [1] Fixes: c118bbb52743 ("arm64: KVM: Propagate full Spectre v2 workaround state to KVM guests") Signed-off-by: Stephen Boyd <swboyd@xxxxxxxxxxxx> --- I see that before commit c118bbb52743 ("arm64: KVM: Propagate full Spectre v2 workaround state to KVM guests") we had this mapping: 0 is SPECTRE_MITIGATED SMCCC_RET_NOT_SUPPORTED is SPECTRE_VULNERABLE so the return value '1' wasn't there then. Once the commit was merged we introduced the notion of NOT_REQUIRED here when it shouldn't have been introduced.
