Subject: [PATCH v3 5/5] x86/microcode: Disable microcode update handler if DIS_MCU_UPDATE is set
Date: Thu, 15 Jun 2023 16:48:34 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230615154834.959-6-alejandro.vallejo@cloud.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230615154834.959-1-alejandro.vallejo@cloud.com>
If IA32_MSR_MCU_CONTROL exists then it's possible a CPU may be unable to
perform microcode updates. This is controlled through the DIS_MCU_LOAD bit
and is intended for baremetal clouds where the owner may not trust the
tenant to choose the microcode version in use. If we notice that bit being
set then simply disable the "apply_microcode" handler so we can't even try
to perform update (as it's known to be silently dropped).

v3:
* Removed microcode_update_one() hunk (Jan, from v2/patch4)
* Read MSR_ARCH_CAPS in early_cpu_init(), missing in v2/patch4 (Andy)
* Moved the MSR_ARCH_CAPS after-update read (it's on v3/p3 now)
* Logic previouslyin this_cpu_can_install_update() is now integrated in
intel_get_ucode_ops() (Jan, from v2/p4)
