+Subject: KVM: x86: Emulate MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES on AMD hosts
+
+From: Sean Christopherson <sean.j.christopherson@intel.com>
+
+commit 0cf9135b773bf32fba9dd8e6699c1b331ee4b749 upstream.
+
+The CPUID flag ARCH_CAPABILITIES is unconditioinally exposed to host
+userspace for all x86 hosts, i.e. KVM advertises ARCH_CAPABILITIES
+regardless of hardware support under the pretense that KVM fully
+emulates MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES. Unfortunately, only VMX hosts
+handle accesses to MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES (despite KVM_GET_MSRS
+also reporting MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES for all hosts).
+
+Move the MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES handling to common x86 code so
+that it's emulated on AMD hosts.
+
+Fixes: 1eaafe91a0df4 ("kvm: x86: IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES is always supported")

+Subject: kvm/x86: Export MDS_NO=0 to guests when TSX is enabled
+
+From: Pawan Gupta <pawan.kumar.gupta@linux.intel.com>
+
+commit e1d38b63acd843cfdd4222bf19a26700fd5c699e upstream.
+
+Export the IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES MSR bit MDS_NO=0 to guests on TSX
+Async Abort(TAA) affected hosts that have TSX enabled and updated
+microcode. This is required so that the guests don't complain,
+
+ "Vulnerable: Clear CPU buffers attempted, no microcode"
+
+when the host has the updated microcode to clear CPU buffers.
+
+Microcode update also adds support for MSR_IA32_TSX_CTRL which is
+enumerated by the ARCH_CAP_TSX_CTRL bit in IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES MSR.
+Guests can't do this check themselves when the ARCH_CAP_TSX_CTRL bit is
+not exported to the guests.
+
+In this case export MDS_NO=0 to the guests. When guests have
+CPUID.MD_CLEAR=1, they deploy MDS mitigation which also mitigates TAA.

+Subject: kvm: x86: IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES is always supported
+
+From: Jim Mattson <jmattson@google.com>
+
+commit 1eaafe91a0df4157521b6417b3dd8430bf5f52f0 upstream.
+
+If there is a possibility that a VM may migrate to a Skylake host,
+then the hypervisor should report IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES.RSBA[bit 2]
+as being set (future work, of course). This implies that
+CPUID.(EAX=7,ECX=0):EDX.ARCH_CAPABILITIES[bit 29] should be
+set. Therefore, kvm should report this CPUID bit as being supported
+whether or not the host supports it. Userspace is still free to clear
+the bit if it chooses.
+
+For more information on RSBA, see Intel's white paper, "Retpoline: A
+Branch Target Injection Mitigation" (Document Number 337131-001),
+currently available at https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=199511.
+
+Since the IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES MSR is emulated in kvm, there is no
+dependency on hardware support for this feature.

+Subject: x86/bugs: Add ITLB_MULTIHIT bug infrastructure
+
+From: Vineela Tummalapalli <vineela.tummalapalli@intel.com>
+
+commit db4d30fbb71b47e4ecb11c4efa5d8aad4b03dfae upstream.
+
+Some processors may incur a machine check error possibly resulting in an
+unrecoverable CPU lockup when an instruction fetch encounters a TLB
+multi-hit in the instruction TLB. This can occur when the page size is
+changed along with either the physical address or cache type. The relevant
+erratum can be found here:
+
+ https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=205195
+
+There are other processors affected for which the erratum does not fully
+disclose the impact.
+
+This issue affects both bare-metal x86 page tables and EPT.
+
+It can be mitigated by either eliminating the use of large pages or by
+using careful TLB invalidations when changing the page size in the page
+tables.
+
+Just like Spectre, Meltdown, L1TF and MDS, a new bit has been allocated in
+MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES (PSCHANGE_MC_NO) and will be set on CPUs which
+are mitigated against this issue.

+Subject: x86/cpu: Add a "tsx=" cmdline option with TSX disabled by default
+
+From: Pawan Gupta <pawan.kumar.gupta@linux.intel.com>
+
+commit 95c5824f75f3ba4c9e8e5a4b1a623c95390ac266 upstream.
+
+Add a kernel cmdline parameter "tsx" to control the Transactional
+Synchronization Extensions (TSX) feature. On CPUs that support TSX
+control, use "tsx=on|off" to enable or disable TSX. Not specifying this
+option is equivalent to "tsx=off". This is because on certain processors
+TSX may be used as a part of a speculative side channel attack.
+
+Carve out the TSX controlling functionality into a separate compilation
+unit because TSX is a CPU feature while the TSX async abort control
+machinery will go to cpu/bugs.c.
+
+ [ bp: - Massage, shorten and clear the arg buffer.
+ - Clarifications of the tsx= possible options - Josh.
+ - Expand on TSX_CTRL availability - Pawan. ]

+Subject: x86/msr: Add the IA32_TSX_CTRL MSR
+
+From: Pawan Gupta <pawan.kumar.gupta@linux.intel.com>
+
+commit c2955f270a84762343000f103e0640d29c7a96f3 upstream.
+
+Transactional Synchronization Extensions (TSX) may be used on certain
+processors as part of a speculative side channel attack. A microcode
+update for existing processors that are vulnerable to this attack will
+add a new MSR - IA32_TSX_CTRL to allow the system administrator the
+option to disable TSX as one of the possible mitigations.
+
+The CPUs which get this new MSR after a microcode upgrade are the ones
+which do not set MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES.MDS_NO (bit 5) because those
+CPUs have CPUID.MD_CLEAR, i.e., the VERW implementation which clears all
+CPU buffers takes care of the TAA case as well.
+
+ [ Note that future processors that are not vulnerable will also
+ support the IA32_TSX_CTRL MSR. ]
+
+Add defines for the new IA32_TSX_CTRL MSR and its bits.
+
+TSX has two sub-features:
+
+1. Restricted Transactional Memory (RTM) is an explicitly-used feature
+ where new instructions begin and end TSX transactions.
+2. Hardware Lock Elision (HLE) is implicitly used when certain kinds of
+ "old" style locks are used by software.
+
+Bit 7 of the IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES indicates the presence of the
+IA32_TSX_CTRL MSR.
+
+There are two control bits in IA32_TSX_CTRL MSR:
+
+ Bit 0: When set, it disables the Restricted Transactional Memory (RTM)
+ sub-feature of TSX (will force all transactions to abort on the
+ XBEGIN instruction).
+
+ Bit 1: When set, it disables the enumeration of the RTM and HLE feature
+ (i.e. it will make CPUID(EAX=7).EBX{bit4} and
+ CPUID(EAX=7).EBX{bit11} read as 0).
+
+The other TSX sub-feature, Hardware Lock Elision (HLE), is
+unconditionally disabled by the new microcode but still enumerated
+as present by CPUID(EAX=7).EBX{bit4}, unless disabled by
+IA32_TSX_CTRL_MSR[1] - TSX_CTRL_CPUID_CLEAR.

++TAA - TSX Asynchronous Abort
++======================================
++
++TAA is a hardware vulnerability that allows unprivileged speculative access to
++data which is available in various CPU internal buffers by using asynchronous
++aborts within an Intel TSX transactional region.
++
++Affected processors
++-------------------
++
++This vulnerability only affects Intel processors that support Intel
++Transactional Synchronization Extensions (TSX) when the TAA_NO bit (bit 8)
++is 0 in the IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES MSR. On processors where the MDS_NO bit
++(bit 5) is 0 in the IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES MSR, the existing MDS mitigations
++also mitigate against TAA.
++
++Whether a processor is affected or not can be read out from the TAA
++vulnerability file in sysfs. See :ref:`tsx_async_abort_sys_info`.
++
++Related CVEs
++------------
++
++The following CVE entry is related to this TAA issue:
++
++ ============== ===== ===================================================
++ CVE-2019-11135 TAA TSX Asynchronous Abort (TAA) condition on some
++ microprocessors utilizing speculative execution may
++ allow an authenticated user to potentially enable
++ information disclosure via a side channel with
++ local access.
++ ============== ===== ===================================================
++
++Problem
++-------
++
++When performing store, load or L1 refill operations, processors write
++data into temporary microarchitectural structures (buffers). The data in
++those buffers can be forwarded to load operations as an optimization.
++
++Intel TSX is an extension to the x86 instruction set architecture that adds
++hardware transactional memory support to improve performance of multi-threaded
++software. TSX lets the processor expose and exploit concurrency hidden in an
++application due to dynamically avoiding unnecessary synchronization.
++
++TSX supports atomic memory transactions that are either committed (success) or
++aborted. During an abort, operations that happened within the transactional region
++are rolled back. An asynchronous abort takes place, among other options, when a
++different thread accesses a cache line that is also used within the transactional
++region when that access might lead to a data race.
++
++Immediately after an uncompleted asynchronous abort, certain speculatively
++executed loads may read data from those internal buffers and pass it to dependent
++operations. This can be then used to infer the value via a cache side channel
++attack.
++
++Because the buffers are potentially shared between Hyper-Threads cross
++Hyper-Thread attacks are possible.
++
++The victim of a malicious actor does not need to make use of TSX. Only the
++attacker needs to begin a TSX transaction and raise an asynchronous abort
++which in turn potenitally leaks data stored in the buffers.
++
++More detailed technical information is available in the TAA specific x86
++architecture section: :ref:`Documentation/x86/tsx_async_abort.rst <tsx_async_abort>`.
++
++
++Attack scenarios
++----------------
++
++Attacks against the TAA vulnerability can be implemented from unprivileged
++applications running on hosts or guests.
++
++As for MDS, the attacker has no control over the memory addresses that can
++be leaked. Only the victim is responsible for bringing data to the CPU. As
++a result, the malicious actor has to sample as much data as possible and
++then postprocess it to try to infer any useful information from it.
++
++A potential attacker only has read access to the data. Also, there is no direct
++privilege escalation by using this technique.
++
++
++.. _tsx_async_abort_sys_info:
++
++TAA system information
++-----------------------
++
++The Linux kernel provides a sysfs interface to enumerate the current TAA status
++of mitigated systems. The relevant sysfs file is:
++
++/sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/tsx_async_abort
++
++The possible values in this file are:
++
++.. list-table::
++
++ * - 'Vulnerable'
++ - The CPU is affected by this vulnerability and the microcode and kernel mitigation are not applied.
++ * - 'Vulnerable: Clear CPU buffers attempted, no microcode'
++ - The system tries to clear the buffers but the microcode might not support the operation.
++ * - 'Mitigation: Clear CPU buffers'
++ - The microcode has been updated to clear the buffers. TSX is still enabled.
++ * - 'Mitigation: TSX disabled'
++ - TSX is disabled.
++ * - 'Not affected'
++ - The CPU is not affected by this issue.
++
++.. _ucode_needed:
++
++Best effort mitigation mode
++^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
++
++If the processor is vulnerable, but the availability of the microcode-based
++mitigation mechanism is not advertised via CPUID the kernel selects a best
++effort mitigation mode. This mode invokes the mitigation instructions
++without a guarantee that they clear the CPU buffers.
++
++This is done to address virtualization scenarios where the host has the
++microcode update applied, but the hypervisor is not yet updated to expose the
++CPUID to the guest. If the host has updated microcode the protection takes
++effect; otherwise a few CPU cycles are wasted pointlessly.
++
++The state in the tsx_async_abort sysfs file reflects this situation
++accordingly.
++
++
++Mitigation mechanism
++--------------------
++
++The kernel detects the affected CPUs and the presence of the microcode which is
++required. If a CPU is affected and the microcode is available, then the kernel
++enables the mitigation by default.
++
++
++The mitigation can be controlled at boot time via a kernel command line option.
++See :ref:`taa_mitigation_control_command_line`.
++
++.. _virt_mechanism:
++
++Virtualization mitigation
++^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
++
++Affected systems where the host has TAA microcode and TAA is mitigated by
++having disabled TSX previously, are not vulnerable regardless of the status
++of the VMs.
++
++In all other cases, if the host either does not have the TAA microcode or
++the kernel is not mitigated, the system might be vulnerable.
++
++
++.. _taa_mitigation_control_command_line:
++
++Mitigation control on the kernel command line
++---------------------------------------------
++
++The kernel command line allows to control the TAA mitigations at boot time with
++the option "tsx_async_abort=". The valid arguments for this option are:
++
++ ============ =============================================================
++ off This option disables the TAA mitigation on affected platforms.
++ If the system has TSX enabled (see next parameter) and the CPU
++ is affected, the system is vulnerable.
++
++ full TAA mitigation is enabled. If TSX is enabled, on an affected
++ system it will clear CPU buffers on ring transitions. On
++ systems which are MDS-affected and deploy MDS mitigation,
++ TAA is also mitigated. Specifying this option on those
++ systems will have no effect.
++ ============ =============================================================
++
++Not specifying this option is equivalent to "tsx_async_abort=full".
++
++The kernel command line also allows to control the TSX feature using the
++parameter "tsx=" on CPUs which support TSX control. MSR_IA32_TSX_CTRL is used
++to control the TSX feature and the enumeration of the TSX feature bits (RTM
++and HLE) in CPUID.
++
++The valid options are:
++
++ ============ =============================================================
++ off Disables TSX on the system.
++
++ Note that this option takes effect only on newer CPUs which are
++ not vulnerable to MDS, i.e., have MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES.MDS_NO=1
++ and which get the new IA32_TSX_CTRL MSR through a microcode
++ update. This new MSR allows for the reliable deactivation of
++ the TSX functionality.
++
++ on Enables TSX.
++
++ Although there are mitigations for all known security
++ vulnerabilities, TSX has been known to be an accelerator for
++ several previous speculation-related CVEs, and so there may be
++ unknown security risks associated with leaving it enabled.
++
++ auto Disables TSX if X86_BUG_TAA is present, otherwise enables TSX
++ on the system.
++ ============ =============================================================
++
++Not specifying this option is equivalent to "tsx=off".
++
++The following combinations of the "tsx_async_abort" and "tsx" are possible. For
++affected platforms tsx=auto is equivalent to tsx=off and the result will be:
++
++ ========= ========================== =========================================
++ tsx=on tsx_async_abort=full The system will use VERW to clear CPU
++ buffers. Cross-thread attacks are still
++ possible on SMT machines.
++ tsx=on tsx_async_abort=off The system is vulnerable.
++ tsx=off tsx_async_abort=full TSX might be disabled if microcode
++ provides a TSX control MSR. If so,
++ system is not vulnerable.
++ tsx=off tsx_async_abort=off ditto
++ ========= ========================== =========================================
++
++
++For unaffected platforms "tsx=on" and "tsx_async_abort=full" does not clear CPU
++buffers. For platforms without TSX control (MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES.MDS_NO=0)
++"tsx" command line argument has no effect.
++
++For the affected platforms below table indicates the mitigation status for the
++combinations of CPUID bit MD_CLEAR and IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES MSR bits MDS_NO
++and TSX_CTRL_MSR.
++
++ ======= ========= ============= ========================================
++ MDS_NO MD_CLEAR TSX_CTRL_MSR Status
++ ======= ========= ============= ========================================
++ 0 0 0 Vulnerable (needs microcode)
++ 0 1 0 MDS and TAA mitigated via VERW
++ 1 1 0 MDS fixed, TAA vulnerable if TSX enabled
++ because MD_CLEAR has no meaning and
++ VERW is not guaranteed to clear buffers
++ 1 X 1 MDS fixed, TAA can be mitigated by
++ VERW or TSX_CTRL_MSR
++ ======= ========= ============= ========================================
++
++Mitigation selection guide
++--------------------------
++
++1. Trusted userspace and guests
++^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
++
++If all user space applications are from a trusted source and do not execute
++untrusted code which is supplied externally, then the mitigation can be
++disabled. The same applies to virtualized environments with trusted guests.
++
++
++2. Untrusted userspace and guests
++^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
++
++If there are untrusted applications or guests on the system, enabling TSX
++might allow a malicious actor to leak data from the host or from other
++processes running on the same physical core.
++
++If the microcode is available and the TSX is disabled on the host, attacks
++are prevented in a virtualized environment as well, even if the VMs do not
++explicitly enable the mitigation.

++TSX Async Abort (TAA) mitigation
++================================
++
++.. _tsx_async_abort:
++
++Overview
++--------
++
++TSX Async Abort (TAA) is a side channel attack on internal buffers in some
++Intel processors similar to Microachitectural Data Sampling (MDS). In this
++case certain loads may speculatively pass invalid data to dependent operations
++when an asynchronous abort condition is pending in a Transactional
++Synchronization Extensions (TSX) transaction. This includes loads with no
++fault or assist condition. Such loads may speculatively expose stale data from
++the same uarch data structures as in MDS, with same scope of exposure i.e.
++same-thread and cross-thread. This issue affects all current processors that
++support TSX.
++
++Mitigation strategy
++-------------------
++
++a) TSX disable - one of the mitigations is to disable TSX. A new MSR
++IA32_TSX_CTRL will be available in future and current processors after
++microcode update which can be used to disable TSX. In addition, it
++controls the enumeration of the TSX feature bits (RTM and HLE) in CPUID.
++
++b) Clear CPU buffers - similar to MDS, clearing the CPU buffers mitigates this
++vulnerability. More details on this approach can be found in
++:ref:`Documentation/hw-vuln/mds.rst <mds>`.
++
++Kernel internal mitigation modes
++--------------------------------
++
++ ============= ============================================================
++ off Mitigation is disabled. Either the CPU is not affected or
++ tsx_async_abort=off is supplied on the kernel command line.
++
++ tsx disabled Mitigation is enabled. TSX feature is disabled by default at
++ bootup on processors that support TSX control.
++
++ verw Mitigation is enabled. CPU is affected and MD_CLEAR is
++ advertised in CPUID.
++
++ ucode needed Mitigation is enabled. CPU is affected and MD_CLEAR is not
++ advertised in CPUID. That is mainly for virtualization
++ scenarios where the host has the updated microcode but the
++ hypervisor does not expose MD_CLEAR in CPUID. It's a best
++ effort approach without guarantee.
++ ============= ============================================================
++
++If the CPU is affected and the "tsx_async_abort" kernel command line parameter is
++not provided then the kernel selects an appropriate mitigation depending on the
++status of RTM and MD_CLEAR CPUID bits.
++
++Below tables indicate the impact of tsx=on|off|auto cmdline options on state of
++TAA mitigation, VERW behavior and TSX feature for various combinations of

+Subject: x86/speculation/taa: Add mitigation for TSX Async Abort
+
+From: Pawan Gupta <pawan.kumar.gupta@linux.intel.com>
+
+commit 1b42f017415b46c317e71d41c34ec088417a1883 upstream.
+
+TSX Async Abort (TAA) is a side channel vulnerability to the internal
+buffers in some Intel processors similar to Microachitectural Data
+Sampling (MDS). In this case, certain loads may speculatively pass
+invalid data to dependent operations when an asynchronous abort
+condition is pending in a TSX transaction.
+
+This includes loads with no fault or assist condition. Such loads may
+speculatively expose stale data from the uarch data structures as in
+MDS. Scope of exposure is within the same-thread and cross-thread. This
+issue affects all current processors that support TSX, but do not have
+ARCH_CAP_TAA_NO (bit 8) set in MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES.
+
+On CPUs which have their IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES MSR bit MDS_NO=0,
+CPUID.MD_CLEAR=1 and the MDS mitigation is clearing the CPU buffers
+using VERW or L1D_FLUSH, there is no additional mitigation needed for
+TAA. On affected CPUs with MDS_NO=1 this issue can be mitigated by
+disabling the Transactional Synchronization Extensions (TSX) feature.
+
+A new MSR IA32_TSX_CTRL in future and current processors after a
+microcode update can be used to control the TSX feature. There are two
+bits in that MSR:
+
+* TSX_CTRL_RTM_DISABLE disables the TSX sub-feature Restricted
+Transactional Memory (RTM).
+
+* TSX_CTRL_CPUID_CLEAR clears the RTM enumeration in CPUID. The other
+TSX sub-feature, Hardware Lock Elision (HLE), is unconditionally
+disabled with updated microcode but still enumerated as present by
+CPUID(EAX=7).EBX{bit4}.
+
+The second mitigation approach is similar to MDS which is clearing the
+affected CPU buffers on return to user space and when entering a guest.
+Relevant microcode update is required for the mitigation to work. More
+details on this approach can be found here:
+
+ https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/hw-vuln/mds.html
+
+The TSX feature can be controlled by the "tsx" command line parameter.
+If it is force-enabled then "Clear CPU buffers" (MDS mitigation) is
+deployed. The effective mitigation state can be read from sysfs.

+Subject: x86/speculation/taa: Fix printing of TAA_MSG_SMT on IBRS_ALL CPUs
+
+From: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com>
+
+commit 012206a822a8b6ac09125bfaa210a95b9eb8f1c1 upstream.
+
+For new IBRS_ALL CPUs, the Enhanced IBRS check at the beginning of
+cpu_bugs_smt_update() causes the function to return early, unintentionally
+skipping the MDS and TAA logic.
+
+This is not a problem for MDS, because there appears to be no overlap
+between IBRS_ALL and MDS-affected CPUs. So the MDS mitigation would be
+disabled and nothing would need to be done in this function anyway.
+
+But for TAA, the TAA_MSG_SMT string will never get printed on Cascade
+Lake and newer.
+
+The check is superfluous anyway: when 'spectre_v2_enabled' is
+SPECTRE_V2_IBRS_ENHANCED, 'spectre_v2_user' is always
+SPECTRE_V2_USER_NONE, and so the 'spectre_v2_user' switch statement
+handles it appropriately by doing nothing. So just remove the check.

+
+From: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com>
+
+commit db616173d787395787ecc93eef075fa975227b10 upstream.
+
+There is a general consensus that TSX usage is not largely spread while
+the history shows there is a non trivial space for side channel attacks
+possible. Therefore the tsx is disabled by default even on platforms
+that might have a safe implementation of TSX according to the current
+knowledge. This is a fair trade off to make.
+
+There are, however, workloads that really do benefit from using TSX and
+updating to a newer kernel with TSX disabled might introduce a
+noticeable regressions. This would be especially a problem for Linux
+distributions which will provide TAA mitigations.
+
+Introduce config options X86_INTEL_TSX_MODE_OFF, X86_INTEL_TSX_MODE_ON
+and X86_INTEL_TSX_MODE_AUTO to control the TSX feature. The config
+setting can be overridden by the tsx cmdline options.
