BHI mitigation mode spectre_bhi=auto does not deploy the software
mitigation by default. In a cloud environment, it is a likely scenario
where userspace is trusted but the guests are not trusted. Deploying
system wide mitigation in such cases is not desirable.
Update the auto mode to unconditionally mitigate against malicious
guests. Deploy the software sequence at VMexit in auto mode also, when
hardware mitigation is not available. Unlike the force =on mode,
software sequence is not deployed at syscalls in auto mode.

Branch History Injection (BHI) attacks may allow a malicious application to
influence indirect branch prediction in kernel by poisoning the branch
history. eIBRS isolates indirect branch targets in ring0. The BHB can
still influence the choice of indirect branch predictor entry, and although
branch predictor entries are isolated between modes when eIBRS is enabled,
the BHB itself is not isolated between modes.
Alder Lake and new processors supports a hardware control BHI_DIS_S to
mitigate BHI. For older processors Intel has released a software sequence
to clear the branch history on parts that don't support BHI_DIS_S. Add
support to execute the software sequence at syscall entry and VMexit to
overwrite the branch history.
For now, branch history is not cleared at interrupt entry, as malicious
applications are not believed to have sufficient control over the
registers, since previous register state is cleared at interrupt
entry. Researchers continue to poke at this area and it may become
necessary to clear at interrupt entry as well in the future.
This mitigation is only defined here. It is enabled later.

The original version of the mitigation would patch in the calls to the
untraining routines directly. That is, the alternative() in UNTRAIN_RET
will patch in the CALL to srso_alias_untrain_ret() directly.
However, even if commit e7c25c441e ("x86/cpu: Cleanup the untrain
mess") meant well in trying to clean up the situation, due to micro-
architectural reasons, the untraining routine srso_alias_untrain_ret()
must be the target of a CALL instruction and not of a JMP instruction as
it is done now.
Reshuffle the alternative macros to accomplish that.

The macro used for MDS mitigation executes VERW with relative
addressing for the operand. This was necessary in earlier versions of
the series. Now it is unnecessary and creates a problem for backports
on older kernels that don't support relocations in alternatives.
Relocation support was added by commit 270a69c448 ("x86/alternative:
Support relocations in alternatives"). Also asm for fixed addressing
is much cleaner than relative RIP addressing.
Simplify the asm by using fixed addressing for VERW operand.

MDS mitigation requires clearing the CPU buffers before returning to
user. This needs to be done late in the exit-to-user path. Current
location of VERW leaves a possibility of kernel data ending up in CPU
buffers for memory accesses done after VERW such as:
1. Kernel data accessed by an NMI between VERW and return-to-user can
remain in CPU buffers since NMI returning to kernel does not
execute VERW to clear CPU buffers.
2. Alyssa reported that after VERW is executed,
CONFIG_GCC_PLUGIN_STACKLEAK=y scrubs the stack used by a system
call. Memory accesses during stack scrubbing can move kernel stack
contents into CPU buffers.
3. When caller saved registers are restored after a return from
function executing VERW, the kernel stack accesses can remain in
CPU buffers(since they occur after VERW).
To fix this VERW needs to be moved very late in exit-to-user path.
In preparation for moving VERW to entry/exit asm code, create macros
that can be used in asm. Also make VERW patching depend on a new feature
flag X86_FEATURE_CLEAR_CPU_BUF.

Currently thunk debug macros explicitly define %gs: segment register
prefix for their percpu variables. This is not compatible with
!CONFIG_SMP, which requires non-prefixed percpu variables.
Fix call thunks debug macros to use PER_CPU_VAR macro from percpu.h
to conditionally use %gs: segment register prefix, depending on
CONFIG_SMP.
Finally, unify ASM_ prefixed assembly macros with their non-prefixed
variants. With support of %rip-relative relocations in place, call
thunk templates allow %rip-relative addressing, so unified assembly
snippet can be used everywhere.

.discard.retpoline_safe sections do not have the SHF_ALLOC flag. These
sections referencing text sections' STT_SECTION symbols with PC-relative
relocations like R_386_PC32 [0] is conceptually not suitable. Newer
LLD will report warnings for REL relocations even for relocatable links [1]:
ld.lld: warning: vmlinux.a(drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-i801.o):(.discard.retpoline_safe+0x120): has non-ABS relocation R_386_PC32 against symbol ''
Switch to absolute relocations instead, which indicate link-time
addresses. In a relocatable link, these addresses are also output
section offsets, used by checks in tools/objtool/check.c. When linking
vmlinux, these .discard.* sections will be discarded, therefore it is
not a problem that R_X86_64_32 cannot represent a kernel address.
Alternatively, we could set the SHF_ALLOC flag for .discard.* sections,
but I think non-SHF_ALLOC for sections to be discarded makes more sense.
Note: if we decide to never support REL architectures (e.g. arm, i386),
we can utilize R_*_NONE relocations (.reloc ., BFD_RELOC_NONE, sym),
making .discard.* sections zero-sized. That said, the section content
waste is 4 bytes per entry, much smaller than sizeof(Elf{32,64}_Rel).

Similar to how it doesn't make sense to have UNTRAIN_RET have two
untrain calls, it also doesn't make sense for VMEXIT to have an extra
IBPB call.
This cures VMEXIT doing potentially unret+IBPB or double IBPB.
Also, the (SEV) VMEXIT case seems to have been overlooked.
Redefine the meaning of the synthetic IBPB flags to:
- ENTRY_IBPB -- issue IBPB on entry (was: entry + VMEXIT)
- IBPB_ON_VMEXIT -- issue IBPB on VMEXIT
And have 'retbleed=ibpb' set *BOTH* feature flags to ensure it retains
the previous behaviour and issues IBPB on entry+VMEXIT.
The new 'srso=ibpb_vmexit' option only sets IBPB_ON_VMEXIT.
Create UNTRAIN_RET_VM specifically for the VMEXIT case, and have that
check IBPB_ON_VMEXIT.
All this avoids having the VMEXIT case having to check both ENTRY_IBPB
and IBPB_ON_VMEXIT and simplifies the alternatives.

The kprobes optimization check can_optimize() calls
insn_is_indirect_jump() to detect indirect jump instructions in
a target function. If any is found, creating an optprobe is disallowed
in the function because the jump could be from a jump table and could
potentially land in the middle of the target optprobe.
With retpolines, insn_is_indirect_jump() additionally looks for calls to
indirect thunks which the compiler potentially used to replace original
jumps. This extra check is however unnecessary because jump tables are
disabled when the kernel is built with retpolines. The same is currently
the case with IBT.
Based on this observation, remove the logic to look for calls to
indirect thunks and skip the check for indirect jumps altogether if the
kernel is built with retpolines or IBT. Remove subsequently the symbols
__indirect_thunk_start and __indirect_thunk_end which are no longer
needed.
Dropping this logic indirectly fixes a problem where the range
[__indirect_thunk_start, __indirect_thunk_end] wrongly included also the
return thunk. It caused that machines which used the return thunk as
a mitigation and didn't have it patched by any alternative ended up not
being able to use optprobes in any regular function.

Add a mitigation for the speculative return address stack overflow
vulnerability found on AMD processors.
The mitigation works by ensuring all RET instructions speculate to
a controlled location, similar to how speculation is controlled in the
retpoline sequence. To accomplish this, the __x86_return_thunk forces
the CPU to mispredict every function return using a 'safe return'
sequence.
To ensure the safety of this mitigation, the kernel must ensure that the
safe return sequence is itself free from attacker interference. In Zen3
and Zen4, this is accomplished by creating a BTB alias between the
untraining function srso_untrain_ret_alias() and the safe return
function srso_safe_ret_alias() which results in evicting a potentially
poisoned BTB entry and using that safe one for all function returns.
In older Zen1 and Zen2, this is accomplished using a reinterpretation
technique similar to Retbleed one: srso_untrain_ret() and
srso_safe_ret().

The "force" argument to write_spec_ctrl_current() is currently ambiguous
as it does not guarantee the MSR write. This is due to the optimization
that writes to the MSR happen only when the new value differs from the
cached value.
This is fine in most cases, but breaks for S3 resume when the cached MSR
value gets out of sync with the hardware MSR value due to S3 resetting
it.
When x86_spec_ctrl_current is same as x86_spec_ctrl_base, the MSR write
is skipped. Which results in SPEC_CTRL mitigations not getting restored.
Move the MSR write from write_spec_ctrl_current() to a new function that
unconditionally writes to the MSR. Update the callers accordingly and
rename functions.

Since ftrace has trampolines, don't use thunks for the __fentry__ site
but instead require that every function called from there includes
accounting. This very much includes all the direct-call functions.
Additionally, ftrace uses ROP tricks in two places:
- return_to_handler(), and
- ftrace_regs_caller() when pt_regs->orig_ax is set by a direct-call.
return_to_handler() already uses a retpoline to replace an
indirect-jump to defeat IBT, since this is a jump-type retpoline, make
sure there is no accounting done and ALTERNATIVE the RET into a ret.
ftrace_regs_caller() does much the same and gets the same treatment.

Ensure that retpolines do the proper call accounting so that the return
accounting works correctly.
Specifically; retpolines are used to replace both 'jmp *%reg' and
'call *%reg', however these two cases do not have the same accounting
requirements. Therefore split things up and provide two different
retpoline arrays for SKL.
The 'jmp *%reg' case needs no accounting, the
__x86_indirect_jump_thunk_array[] covers this. The retpoline is
changed to not use the return thunk; it's a simple call;ret construct.
[ strictly speaking it should do:
andq $(~0x1f), PER_CPU_VAR(__x86_call_depth)
but we can argue this can be covered by the fuzz we already have
in the accounting depth (12) vs the RSB depth (16) ]
The 'call *%reg' case does need accounting, the
__x86_indirect_call_thunk_array[] covers this. Again, this retpoline
avoids the use of the return-thunk, in this case to avoid double
accounting.

To address the Intel SKL RSB underflow issue in software it's required to
do call depth tracking.
Provide a return thunk for call depth tracking on Intel SKL CPUs.
The tracking does not use a counter. It uses uses arithmetic shift
right on call entry and logical shift left on return.
The depth tracking variable is initialized to 0x8000.... when the call
depth is zero. The arithmetic shift right sign extends the MSB and
saturates after the 12th call. The shift count is 5 so the tracking covers
12 nested calls. On return the variable is shifted left logically so it
becomes zero again.
CALL RET
0: 0x8000000000000000 0x0000000000000000
1: 0xfc00000000000000 0xf000000000000000
...
11: 0xfffffffffffffff8 0xfffffffffffffc00
12: 0xffffffffffffffff 0xffffffffffffffe0
After a return buffer fill the depth is credited 12 calls before the next
stuffing has to take place.
There is a inaccuracy for situations like this:
10 calls
5 returns
3 calls
4 returns
3 calls
....
The shift count might cause this to be off by one in either direction, but
there is still a cushion vs. the RSB depth. The algorithm does not claim to
be perfect, but it should obfuscate the problem enough to make exploitation
extremly difficult.
The theory behind this is:
RSB is a stack with depth 16 which is filled on every call. On the return
path speculation "pops" entries to speculate down the call chain. Once the
speculative RSB is empty it switches to other predictors, e.g. the Branch
History Buffer, which can be mistrained by user space and misguide the
speculation path to a gadget.
Call depth tracking is designed to break this speculation path by stuffing
speculation trap calls into the RSB which are never getting a corresponding
return executed. This stalls the prediction path until it gets resteered,
The assumption is that stuffing at the 12th return is sufficient to break
the speculation before it hits the underflow and the fallback to the other
predictors. Testing confirms that it works. Johannes, one of the retbleed
researchers. tried to attack this approach but failed.
There is obviously no scientific proof that this will withstand future
research progress, but all we can do right now is to speculate about it.
The SAR/SHL usage was suggested by Andi Kleen.
