[PATCH 29/45] arm64: Implement branch predictor hardening for affected Cortex-A CPUs

From: Alex Shi
Date: Thu Mar 01 2018 - 07:59:31 EST


From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@xxxxxxx>

commit aa6acde65e03 upstream.

Cortex-A57, A72, A73 and A75 are susceptible to branch predictor aliasing
and can theoretically be attacked by malicious code.

This patch implements a PSCI-based mitigation for these CPUs when available.
The call into firmware will invalidate the branch predictor state, preventing
any malicious entries from affecting other victim contexts.
