x86/speculation: Add LFENCE to RSB fill sequence
commit ba6e31af2be96c4d0536f2152ed6f7b6c11bca47 upstream. RSB fill sequence does not have any protection for miss-prediction of conditional branch at the end of the sequence. CPU can speculatively execute code immediately after the sequence, while RSB filling hasn't completed yet. #define __FILL_RETURN_BUFFER(reg, nr, sp) \ mov $(nr/2), reg; \ 771: \ ANNOTATE_INTRA_FUNCTION_CALL; \ call 772f; \ 773: /* speculation trap */ \ UNWIND_HINT_EMPTY; \ pause; \ lfence; \ jmp 773b; \ 772: \ ANNOTATE_INTRA_FUNCTION_CALL; \ call 774f; \ 775: /* speculation trap */ \ UNWIND_HINT_EMPTY; \ pause; \ lfence; \ jmp 775b; \ 774: \ add $(BITS_PER_LONG/8) * 2, sp; \ dec reg; \ jnz 771b; <----- CPU can miss-predict here. Before RSB is filled, RETs that come in program order after this macro can be executed speculatively, making them vulnerable to RSB-based attacks. Mitigate it by adding an LFENCE after the conditional branch to prevent speculation while RSB is being filled.
