Subject: [PATCH] x86/bugs: Default retbleed to =stuff when retpoline is auto
 enabled
Message-ID: <20240208-retbleed-auto-stuff-v1-1-6f12e513868f@linux.intel.com>
Precedence: bulk
MIME-Version: 1.0

Content-Disposition: inline

On Intel systems when retpoline mitigation is enabled for spectre-v2,
retbleed=auto does not enable RSB stuffing. This may make the system
vulnerable to retbleed. Retpoline is not the default mitigation when
IBRS is present, but in virtualized cases a VMM can hide IBRS from
guests, resulting in guest deploying retpoline by default.

On Intel systems, when spectre_v2 and retbleed mitigations are in auto
mode, and retpoline is enabled, deploy Call Depth Tracking and RSB
stuffing i.e. retbleed=stuff mitigation. For AMD/Hygon auto mode already
selects the appropriate mitigation.
