Hi Greg,
I've put together a tag which includes all of the upstream arm64 spectre and meltdown mitigations based on v4.15. Please could you consider taking this into the 4.15 stable tree?
I understand that Ard (cc'd) is using this stack to create a version for 4.14 too.
Note that there are two commits in here that are already in stable:
9c9345fb26ff [Variant 1/Spectre-v1] Documentation: Document array_index_nospec 60d6c8a8e54e [Variant 1/Spectre-v1] array_index_nospec: Sanitize speculative array de-references
so you can skip those when applying.
Please shout if you run into trouble.
Ah, nice, thanks for this. I'll use this for the next 4.15.y kernel release after the one I _just_ sent out for review a few minutes ago.
Cool, sorry for the unfortunate timing. This only hit mainline last night.
Ok, then it's not a big deal to wait a few more days :)
Maybe by then we can have the 4.14 patches at the same time...
thanks,
greg k-h
