Subject: [PATCH v2 4/4] powerpc/64s: Sanitise user registers on interrupt in pseries
Date: Mon, 7 Nov 2022 14:32:02 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221107033202.1375238-4-rmclure@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20221107033202.1375238-1-rmclure@linux.ibm.com>
Cause pseries platforms to default to zeroising all potentially user-defined
registers when entering the kernel by means of any interrupt source,
reducing user-influence of the kernel and the likelihood or producing
speculation gadgets.
