<title>x86/speculation: Add Special Register Buffer Data Sampling (SRBDS) mitigation</title>

commit 7e5b3c267d256822407a22fdce6afdf9cd13f9fb upstream

SRBDS is an MDS-like speculative side channel that can leak bits from the
random number generator (RNG) across cores and threads. New microcode
serializes the processor access during the execution of RDRAND and
RDSEED. This ensures that the shared buffer is overwritten before it is
released for reuse.

While it is present on all affected CPU models, the microcode mitigation
is not needed on models that enumerate ARCH_CAPABILITIES[MDS_NO] in the
cases where TSX is not supported or has been disabled with TSX_CTRL.

The mitigation is activated by default on affected processors and it
increases latency for RDRAND and RDSEED instructions. Among other
effects this will reduce throughput from /dev/urandom.

* Enable administrator to configure the mitigation off when desired using
  either mitigations=off or srbds=off.

* Export vulnerability status via sysfs

* Rename file-scoped macros to apply for non-whitelist table initializations.

Commit bd0e6c9614b9 ("usb: hub: try old enumeration scheme first for
high speed devices") changed the way the hub driver enumerates
high-speed devices.  Instead of using the "new" enumeration scheme
first and switching to the "old" scheme if that doesn't work, we start
with the "old" scheme.  In theory this is better because the "old"
scheme is slightly faster -- it involves resetting the device only
once instead of twice.

However, for a long time Windows used only the "new" scheme.  Zeng Tao
said that Windows 8 and later use the "old" scheme for high-speed
devices, but apparently there are some devices that don't like it.
William Bader reports that the Ricoh webcam built into his Sony Vaio
laptop not only doesn't enumerate under the "old" scheme, it gets hung
up so badly that it won't then enumerate under the "new" scheme!  Only
a cold reset will fix it.

Therefore we will revert the commit and go back to trying the "new"
scheme first for high-speed devices.

Pull time(keeping) updates from Thomas Gleixner:

 - Fix the time_for_children symlink in /proc/$PID/ so it properly
   reflects that it part of the 'time' namespace

 - Add the missing userns limit for the allowed number of time
   namespaces, which was half defined but the actual array member was
   not added. This went unnoticed as the array has an exessive empty
   member at the end but introduced a user visible regression as the
   output was corrupted.

 - Prevent further silent ucount corruption by adding a BUILD_BUG_ON()
   to catch half updated data.

Pull time(keeping) updates from Thomas Gleixner:

 - Fix the time_for_children symlink in /proc/$PID/ so it properly
   reflects that it part of the 'time' namespace

 - Add the missing userns limit for the allowed number of time
   namespaces, which was half defined but the actual array member was
   not added. This went unnoticed as the array has an exessive empty
   member at the end but introduced a user visible regression as the
   output was corrupted.

 - Prevent further silent ucount corruption by adding a BUILD_BUG_ON()
   to catch half updated data.
