From bfacceccc8fd9fd30f70563569d7bd1d1453a841 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mark Rutland Date: Thu, 12 Apr 2018 12:11:14 +0100 Subject: arm64: Move BP hardening to check_and_switch_context From: Marc Zyngier commit a8e4c0a919ae310944ed2c9ace11cf3ccd8a609b upstream. We call arm64_apply_bp_hardening() from post_ttbr_update_workaround, which has the unexpected consequence of being triggered on every exception return to userspace when ARM64_SW_TTBR0_PAN is selected, even if no context switch actually occured. This is a bit suboptimal, and it would be more logical to only invalidate the branch predictor when we actually switch to a different mm. In order to solve this, move the call to arm64_apply_bp_hardening() into check_and_switch_context(), where we're guaranteed to pick a different mm context.
