Message-ID: <20190421142037.21881-33-...@ellerman.id.au>
From: Michael Ellerman <m...@ellerman.id.au>
commit 6d44acae1937b81cf8115ada8958e04f601f3f2e upstream.
When I added the spectre_v2 information in sysfs, I included the
availability of the ori31 speculation barrier.
Although the ori31 barrier can be used to mitigate v2, it's primarily
intended as a spectre v1 mitigation. Spectre v2 is mitigated by
hardware changes.
So rework the sysfs files to show the ori31 information in the
spectre_v1 file, rather than v2.
Currently we display eg:
$ grep . spectre_v*
spectre_v1:Mitigation: __user pointer sanitization
spectre_v2:Mitigation: Indirect branch cache disabled, ori31 speculation
barrier enabled
After:
$ grep . spectre_v*
spectre_v1:Mitigation: __user pointer sanitization, ori31 speculation barrier
enabled
spectre_v2:Mitigation: Indirect branch cache disabled
