Subject: [PATCH 4.15 081/146] nospec: Include <asm/barrier.h> dependency
Date: Tue, 13 Mar 2018 16:24:08 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180313152327.044053693@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180313152320.439085687@linuxfoundation.org>
4.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>
commit eb6174f6d1be16b19cfa43dac296bfed003ce1a6 upstream.
The nospec.h header expects the per-architecture header file
<asm/barrier.h> to optionally define array_index_mask_nospec(). Include
that dependency to prevent inadvertent fallback to the default
array_index_mask_nospec() implementation.
The default implementation may not provide a full mitigation
on architectures that perform data value speculation.
