Commit Message

Kim Phillips Nov. 4, 2022, 9:36 p.m. UTC
The AMD Zen4 core supports a new feature called Automatic IBRS.

It is a "set-and-forget" feature that means that, unlike e.g.,
s/w-toggled SPEC_CTRL.IBRS, h/w manages its IBRS mitigation
resources automatically across CPL transitions.

The feature is advertised by CPUID_Fn80000021_EAX bit 8 and is
enabled by setting MSR C000_0080 (EFER) bit 21.

Enable Automatic IBRS by default if the CPU feature is present.
It typically provides greater performance over the incumbent
generic retpolines mitigation.  In addition:

 - Don't clear the RSB on VMEXIT when AutoIBRS is enabled:
   The internal return address stack used for return address
   predictions is automatically cleared on VMEXIT.

 - Automatic IBRS removes the need for toggling IBRS during
   firmware switches, so don't enable IBRS_FW when Automatic
   IBRS is enabled.

 - Allow for spectre_v2=autoibrs in the kernel command line,
   reverting to auto-selection if the feature isn't available.

Why?

What the whole logic here should do is enable autoibrs when detected
automatically, without the need for the user to even select it as it is
the superior mitigation.

Well; perhaps the whole autoibrs thing should be mapped to the existing
eIBRS options. AFAICT this is the same thing under a new name, no need
to invent yet more options. bugs.c is quite insane enough already.

The only useful option is to allow a different option be
selected for code testing.
So maybe you want an option for completeness - for when
an 'even better' option is available.

I've started a version that has AUTOIBRS reuse SPECTRE_V2_EIBRS
spectre_v2_mitigation enum, but, so far, it's change to bugs.c
looks bigger: 58 lines changed vs. 34 (see below).

Let me know if you want me to send it as a part of a v2 submission
after I take care of the kvm CPUID review.

Thanks,

Kim

Thanks for putting that together.  I generally like how this looks.

I think it probably goes to a _bit_ too much trouble to turn off
"eibrs,lfence/retpoline".  If someone goes to the trouble of specifying
those, a warning or pr_info() is probably enough.  You don't need to
actively override it.

Did the "mode != SPECTRE_V2_AUTO_IBRS" check get dropped accidentally?
Or is it unnecessary now?

Not, even, just do it. User told you to, it's not technically
impossible, so just go.

It can be smaller. You simply do:

	if (cpu_has(c, X86_FEATURE_AUTOIBRS))
		setup_force_cpu_cap(X86_FEATURE_IBRS_ENHANCED);

and the rest should just work - see below.

And yes, as Peter says, when the user requests something, the user
should get it. No matter whether it makes sense or not.

Thx.

I am confused here. Isn't the agreement that the user should get what they
asked for? That is, instead of warning and changing the mode to
SPECTRE_V2_EIBRS, the kernel should still use lfence or retpoline as requested?

The point of those options was to protect against Branch History Injection
attacks and Intra-Mode Branch Target Injection attacks. The first one might not
affect the CPUs that support AUTOIBRS, though we haven't heard that.

The second one (IMBTI) is very likely still possible with AUTOIBRS and
retpolines should still protect against those attacks. So users who want to be
paranoid should still be able to opt for "eibrs,retpoline" and have retpolines
enabled.

I've removed the above and have the complete diff below.  It includes patch 1/3 and
drops 3/3 for now due to Jim Mattson's comments.  After some more testing, I'll
resubmit.

Thanks,
