x86/its: FineIBT-paranoid vs ITS
FineIBT-paranoid was using the retpoline bytes for the paranoid check, disabling retpolines, because all parts that have IBT also have eIBRS and thus don't need no stinking retpolines. Except... ITS needs the retpolines for indirect calls must not be in the first half of a cacheline :-/ So what was the paranoid call sequence: <fineibt_paranoid_start>: 0: 41 ba 78 56 34 12 mov $0x12345678, %r10d 6: 45 3b 53 f7 cmp -0x9(%r11), %r10d a: 4d 8d 5b <f0> lea -0x10(%r11), %r11 e: 75 fd jne d <fineibt_paranoid_start+0xd> 10: 41 ff d3 call *%r11 13: 90 nop Now becomes: <fineibt_paranoid_start>: 0: 41 ba 78 56 34 12 mov $0x12345678, %r10d 6: 45 3b 53 f7 cmp -0x9(%r11), %r10d a: 4d 8d 5b f0 lea -0x10(%r11), %r11 e: 2e e8 XX XX XX XX cs call __x86_indirect_paranoid_thunk_r11 Where the paranoid_thunk looks like: 1d: <ea> (bad) __x86_indirect_paranoid_thunk_r11: 1e: 75 fd jne 1d __x86_indirect_its_thunk_r11: 20: 41 ff eb jmp *%r11 23: cc int3 [ dhansen: remove initialization to false ] Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Pawan Gupta <pawan.kumar.gupta@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Alexandre Chartre <alexandre.chartre@oracle.com>
