[PATCH 5.4 28/51] KVM: VMX: Prevent guest RSB poisoning attacks with eIBRS
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Wed Oct 05 2022 - 07:35:07 EST
From: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit fc02735b14fff8c6678b521d324ade27b1a3d4cf upstream.
On eIBRS systems, the returns in the vmexit return path from
__vmx_vcpu_run() to vmx_vcpu_run() are exposed to RSB poisoning attacks.
Fix that by moving the post-vmexit spec_ctrl handling to immediately
after the vmexit.
