x86/microcode: Fix suspend to RAM with builtin microcode 2016-08-16T07:34:59+00:00 Borislav Petkov bp@suse.de 2016-06-06T15:10:43+00:00 74de73fd1233c710e71760a1ddd21d381bc553f9 commit 4b703305d98bf7350d4b2953ee39a3aa2eeb1778 upstream. Usually, after we have found the proper microcode blob for the current machine, we stash it away for later use with save_microcode_in_initrd(). However, with builtin microcode which doesn't come from the initrd, we don't call that function because CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD=n and even if set, we don't have a valid initrd. In order to fix this, let's make save_microcode_in_initrd() an fs_initcall which runs before rootfs_initcall() as this was the time it was called previously through: rootfs_initcall(populate_rootfs) |-> free_initrd() |-> free_initrd_mem() |-> save_microcode_in_initrd() Also, we make it run independently from initrd functionality being present or not. And since it is called in the microcode loader only now, we can also make it static.

commit 4b703305d98bf7350d4b2953ee39a3aa2eeb1778 upstream.

Usually, after we have found the proper microcode blob for the current

However, with builtin microcode which doesn't come from the initrd, we
don't call that function because CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD=n and even if
set, we don't have a valid initrd.

In order to fix this, let's make save_microcode_in_initrd() an
fs_initcall which runs before rootfs_initcall() as this was the time it
was called previously through:

 rootfs_initcall(populate_rootfs)
 |-> free_initrd()
     |-> free_initrd_mem()
         |-> save_microcode_in_initrd()

Also, we make it run independently from initrd functionality being
present or not.

And since it is called in the microcode loader only now, we can also
make it static.

  SKD046 Branch Instructions May Initialize MPX Bound Registers Incorrectly

  Problem:

  Depending on the current Intel MPX (Memory Protection
  Extensions) configuration, execution of certain branch
  instructions (near CALL, near RET, near JMP, and Jcc
  instructions) without a BND prefix (F2H) initialize the MPX bound
  registers. Due to this erratum, such a branch instruction that is
  executed both with CPL = 3 and with CPL < 3 may not use the
  correct MPX configuration register (BNDCFGU or BNDCFGS,
  respectively) for determining whether to initialize the bound
  registers; it may thus initialize the bound registers when it
  should not, or fail to initialize them when it should.

  Implication:

  A branch instruction that has executed both in user mode and in
  supervisor mode (from the same linear address) may cause a #BR
  (bound range fault) when it should not have or may not cause a
  #BR when it should have.  Workaround An operating system can
  avoid this erratum by setting CR4.SMEP[bit 20] to enable
  supervisor-mode execution prevention (SMEP). When SMEP is
  enabled, no code can be executed both with CPL = 3 and with CPL < 3.

Pull x86 asm updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main changes in this cycle were:

   - MSR access API fixes and enhancements (Andy Lutomirski)

   - early exception handling improvements (Andy Lutomirski)

   - user-space FS/GS prctl usage fixes and improvements (Andy
     Lutomirski)

   - Remove the cpu_has_*() APIs and replace them with equivalents
     (Borislav Petkov)

   - task switch micro-optimization (Brian Gerst)

   - 32-bit entry code simplification (Denys Vlasenko)

   - enhance PAT handling in enumated CPUs (Toshi Kani)

  ... and lots of other cleanups/fixlets"
