commit 8442df2b49 upstream.
Add support for
CPUID Fn8000_0021_EAX[31] (SRSO_MSR_FIX). If this bit is 1, it
indicates that software may use MSR BP_CFG[BpSpecReduce] to mitigate
SRSO.
Enable BpSpecReduce to mitigate SRSO across guest/host boundaries.
Switch back to enabling the bit when virtualization is enabled and to
clear the bit when virtualization is disabled because using a MSR slot
would clear the bit when the guest is exited and any training the guest
has done, would potentially influence the host kernel when execution
enters the kernel and hasn't VMRUN the guest yet.
