Subject[PATCH 46/52] arm: Add BTB invalidation on switch_mm for Cortex-A9, A12 and A17
Date
From: Marc Zyngier <marc.zyngier@arm.com>

** Not yet queued for inclusion in mainline **

In order to avoid aliasing attacks against the branch predictor,
some implementations require to invalidate the BTB when switching
from one user context to another.

For this, we reuse the existing implementation for Cortex-A8, and
apply it to A9, A12 and A17.

+ Speculation attacks against some high-performance processors rely on
+ being able to manipulate the branch predictor for a victim context by
+ executing aliasing branches in the attacker context. Such attacks
+ can be partially mitigated against by clearing internal branch
+ predictor state and limiting the prediction logic in some situations.

+ This config option will take CPU-specific actions to harden the
+ branch predictor against aliasing attacks and may rely on specific
+ instruction sequences or control bits being set by the system
+ firmware.
+
+ If unsure, say Y.
