commit e52c1dc7455d32c8a55f9949d300e5e87d011fa6 upstream. FineIBT-paranoid was using the retpoline bytes for the paranoid check, disabling retpolines, because all parts that have IBT also have eIBRS and thus don't need no stinking retpolines. Except... ITS needs the retpolines for indirect calls must not be in the first half of a cacheline :-/ So what was the paranoid call sequence: <fineibt_paranoid_start>: 0: 41 ba 78 56 34 12 mov $0x12345678, %r10d 6: 45 3b 53 f7 cmp -0x9(%r11), %r10d a: 4d 8d 5b <f0> lea -0x10(%r11), %r11 e: 75 fd jne d <fineibt_paranoid_start+0xd> 10: 41 ff d3 call *%r11 13: 90 nop Now becomes: <fineibt_paranoid_start>: 0: 41 ba 78 56 34 12 mov $0x12345678, %r10d 6: 45 3b 53 f7 cmp -0x9(%r11), %r10d a: 4d 8d 5b f0 lea -0x10(%r11), %r11 e: 2e e8 XX XX XX XX cs call __x86_indirect_paranoid_thunk_r11 Where the paranoid_thunk looks like: 1d: <ea> (bad) __x86_indirect_paranoid_thunk_r11: 1e: 75 fd jne 1d __x86_indirect_its_thunk_r11: 20: 41 ff eb jmp *%r11 23: cc int3 [ dhansen: remove initialization to false ] Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Pawan Gupta <pawan.kumar.gupta@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Reviewed-by: Alexandre Chartre <alexandre.chartre@oracle.com> [ Just a portion of the original commit, in order to fix a build issue in stable kernels due to backports ] Tested-by: Holger Hoffstätte <holger@applied-asynchrony.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250514113952.GB16434@noisy.programming.kicks-ass.net Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
