Subject: [PATCH 5.10 42/43] x86/xen: remove hypercall page
Date: Tue, 17 Dec 2024 18:07:33 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241217170522.400810406@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20241217170520.459491270@linuxfoundation.org>
5.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com>
commit 7fa0da5373685e7ed249af3fa317ab1e1ba8b0a6 upstream.
The hypercall page is no longer needed. It can be removed, as from the
Xen perspective it is optional.
But, from Linux's perspective, it removes naked RET instructions that
escape the speculative protections that Call Depth Tracking and/or
Untrain Ret are trying to achieve.
This is part of XSA-466 / CVE-2024-53241.
