x86/retpoline: Simplify vmexit_fill_RSB()
Simplify it to call an asm-function instead of pasting 41 insn bytes at every call site. Also, add alignment to the macro as suggested here: https://support.google.com/faqs/answer/7625886 [dwmw2: Clean up comments, let it clobber %ebx and just tell the compiler] Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw@amazon.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: ak@linux.intel.com Cc: dave.hansen@intel.com Cc: karahmed@amazon.de Cc: arjan@linux.intel.com Cc: torvalds@linux-foundation.org Cc: peterz@infradead.org Cc: bp@alien8.de Cc: pbonzini@redhat.com Cc: tim.c.chen@linux.intel.com Cc: gregkh@linux-foundation.org Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1517070274-12128-3-git-send-email-dwmw@amazon.co.uk

+ * Fill the CPU return stack buffer.

+ * This is required in various cases for retpoline and IBRS-based

+ * purely to ensure that it doesn't get empty, which on some CPUs would
+ * allow predictions from other (unwanted!) sources to be used.

+ * Google experimented with loop-unrolling and this turned out to be
+ * the optimal version - two calls, each with their own speculation
+ * trap should their return address end up getting used, in a loop.
