From: Dan Williams Date: Tue, 30 Jan 2018 01:02:33 +0000 (-0800) Subject: x86: Introduce barrier_nospec X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b3d7ad85b80bbc404635dca80f5b129f6242bc7a;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git x86: Introduce barrier_nospec Rename the open coded form of this instruction sequence from rdtsc_ordered() into a generic barrier primitive, barrier_nospec(). One of the mitigations for Spectre variant1 vulnerabilities is to fence speculative execution after successfully validating a bounds check. I.e. force the result of a bounds check to resolve in the instruction pipeline to ensure speculative execution honors that result before potentially operating on out-of-bounds data. No functional changes.
