From: Borislav Petkov Date: Tue, 14 Jan 2014 23:07:11 +0000 (+0100) Subject: x86, cpu, amd: Add workaround for family 16h, erratum 793 X-Git-Tag: v3.4.107~9 X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=56a59c3ea2fc70fc8288ca4407277bf53044cd82;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Fstable.git x86, cpu, amd: Add workaround for family 16h, erratum 793 commit 3b56496865f9f7d9bcb2f93b44c63f274f08e3b6 upstream. This adds the workaround for erratum 793 as a precaution in case not every BIOS implements it. This addresses CVE-2013-6885. Erratum text: [Revision Guide for AMD Family 16h Models 00h-0Fh Processors, document 51810 Rev. 3.04 November 2013] 793 Specific Combination of Writes to Write Combined Memory Types and Locked Instructions May Cause Core Hang Description Under a highly specific and detailed set of internal timing conditions, a locked instruction may trigger a timing sequence whereby the write to a write combined memory type is not flushed, causing the locked instruction to stall indefinitely. Potential Effect on System Processor core hang. Suggested Workaround BIOS should set MSR C001_1020[15] = 1b.

Peter Anvin [bwh: Backported to 3.2: - Adjust filename - Venkatesh Srinivas pointed out we should use {rd,wr}msrl_safe() to avoid crashing on KVM. This was fixed upstream by commit 8f86a7373a1c ("x86, AMD: Convert to the new bit access MSR accessors") but that's too much trouble to backport. Here we must use {rd,wr}msrl_amd_safe().] Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings Cc: Moritz Muehlenhoff Cc: Venkatesh Srinivas Signed-off-by: Zefan Li --- diff --git a/arch/x86/include/asm/msr-index.h b/arch/x86/include/asm/msr-index.h index ccb805966f685..e92e1e4d7a5e5 100644 --- a/arch/x86/include/asm/msr-index.h +++ b/arch/x86/include/asm/msr-index.h @@ -130,6 +130,7 @@ #define MSR_AMD64_PATCH_LOADER 0xc0010020 #define MSR_AMD64_OSVW_ID_LENGTH 0xc0010140 #define MSR_AMD64_OSVW_STATUS 0xc0010141 +#define MSR_AMD64_LS_CFG 0xc0011020 #define MSR_AMD64_DC_CFG 0xc0011022 #define MSR_AMD64_IBSFETCHCTL 0xc0011030 #define MSR_AMD64_IBSFETCHLINAD 0xc0011031 diff --git a/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/amd.c b/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/amd.c index a9c8a46dd7d3f..5beec8abd37e1 100644 --- a/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/amd.c +++ b/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/amd.c @@ -417,6 +417,16 @@ static void __cpuinit early_init_amd_mc(struct cpuinfo_x86 *c) c->x86_coreid_bits = bits; #endif + + /* F16h erratum 793, CVE-2013-6885 */ + if (c->x86 == 0x16 && c->x86_model <= 0xf) { + u64 val; + + if (!rdmsrl_amd_safe(MSR_AMD64_LS_CFG, &val) && + !(val & BIT(15))) + wrmsrl_amd_safe(MSR_AMD64_LS_CFG, val | BIT(15)); + } + } static void __cpuinit bsp_init_amd(struct cpuinfo_x86 *c)
