[PATCH 4.9 01/28] arm64: entry: Restore tramp_map_kernel ISB

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

 



From: James Morse <james.morse@xxxxxxx>

Summit reports that the BHB backports for v4.9 prevent vulnerable
platforms from booting when CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is enabled.

This is because the trampoline code takes a translation fault when
accessing the data page, because the TTBR write hasn't been completed
by an ISB before the access is made.

Upstream has a complex erratum workaround for QCOM_FALKOR_E1003 in
this area, which removes the ISB when the workaround has been applied.
v4.9 lacks this workaround, but should still have the ISB.

Restore the barrier.
