Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] x86/bugs: Don't fill RSB on VMEXIT with eIBRS+retpoline
Date: Thu, 21 Nov 2024 12:07:18 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9bd7809697fc6e53c7c52c6c324697b99a894013.1732219175.git.jpoimboe@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1732219175.git.jpoimboe@kernel.org>

eIBRS protects against RSB underflow/poisoning attacks.  Adding
retpoline to the mix doesn't change that.  Retpoline has a balanced
CALL/RET anyway.

So the current full RSB filling on VMEXIT with eIBRS+retpoline is
overkill.  Disable it (or do the VMEXIT_LITE mitigation if needed).
