From dbb7caf110c4a7b9afb7cdc195ac6967d3a30adf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nishanth Menon Date: Tue, 12 Jun 2018 15:24:10 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] ARM: mach-omap2: omap5/dra7: Enable ACTLR[0] (Enable invalidates of BTB) to facilitate CVE_2017-5715 WA in OS Enable CVE_2017_5715 and since we have our own v7_arch_cp15_set_acr function to setup the bits, we are able to override the settings. Without this enabled, Linux kernel reports: CPU0: Spectre v2: firmware did not set auxiliary control register IBE bit, system vulnerable With this enabled, Linux kernel reports: CPU0: Spectre v2: using ICIALLU workaround NOTE: This by itself does not enable the workaround for CPU1 (on OMAP5 and DRA72/AM572 SoCs) and may require additional kernel patches.
