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

 



5.15-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: "Borislav Petkov (AMD)" <bp@xxxxxxxxx>

Commit 0e110732473e14d6520e49d75d2c88ef7d46fe67 upstream.

The srso_alias_untrain_ret() dummy thunk in the !CONFIG_MITIGATION_SRSO
case is there only for the altenative in CALL_UNTRAIN_RET to have
a symbol to resolve.

However, testing with kernels which don't have CONFIG_MITIGATION_SRSO
enabled, leads to the warning in patch_return() to fire:

  missing return thunk: srso_alias_untrain_ret+0x0/0x10-0x0: eb 0e 66 66 2e
  WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at arch/x86/kernel/alternative.c:826 apply_returns (arch/x86/kernel/alternative.c:826

Put in a plain "ret" there so that gcc doesn't put a return thunk in
in its place which special and gets checked.

In addition:

  ERROR: modpost: "srso_alias_untrain_ret" [arch/x86/kvm/kvm-amd.ko] undefined!
  make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.modpost:145: Module.symvers] Chyba 1
  make[1]: *** [/usr/src/linux-6.8.3/Makefile:1873: modpost] Chyba 2
  make: *** [Makefile:240: __sub-make] Chyba 2

since !SRSO builds would use the dummy return thunk as reported by
petr.pisar@xxxxxxxx, https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=218679.
