Merge branch 'speck-v20' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Merge speculative store buffer bypass fixes from Thomas Gleixner: - rework of the SPEC_CTRL MSR management to accomodate the new fancy SSBD (Speculative Store Bypass Disable) bit handling. - the CPU bug and sysfs infrastructure for the exciting new Speculative Store Bypass 'feature'. - support for disabling SSB via LS_CFG MSR on AMD CPUs including Hyperthread synchronization on ZEN. - PRCTL support for dynamic runtime control of SSB - SECCOMP integration to automatically disable SSB for sandboxed processes with a filter flag for opt-out. - KVM integration to allow guests fiddling with SSBD including the new software MSR VIRT_SPEC_CTRL to handle the LS_CFG based oddities on AMD. - BPF protection against SSB .. this is just the core and x86 side, other architecture support will come separately. * 'speck-v20' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (49 commits) bpf: Prevent memory disambiguation attack x86/bugs: Rename SSBD_NO to SSB_NO KVM: SVM: Implement VIRT_SPEC_CTRL support for SSBD x86/speculation, KVM: Implement support for VIRT_SPEC_CTRL/LS_CFG x86/bugs: Rework spec_ctrl base and mask logic x86/bugs: Remove x86_spec_ctrl_set() x86/bugs: Expose x86_spec_ctrl_base directly x86/bugs: Unify x86_spec_ctrl_{set_guest,restore_host} x86/speculation: Rework speculative_store_bypass_update() x86/speculation: Add virtualized speculative store bypass disable support x86/bugs, KVM: Extend speculation control for VIRT_SPEC_CTRL x86/speculation: Handle HT correctly on AMD x86/cpufeatures: Add FEATURE_ZEN x86/cpufeatures: Disentangle SSBD enumeration x86/cpufeatures: Disentangle MSR_SPEC_CTRL enumeration from IBRS x86/speculation: Use synthetic bits for IBRS/IBPB/STIBP KVM: SVM: Move spec control call after restore of GS x86/cpu: Make alternative_msr_write work for 32-bit code x86/bugs: Fix the parameters alignment and missing void x86/bugs: Make cpu_show_common() static ...
