Subject: [PATCH v5 00/12] spectre variant1 mitigations for tip/x86/pti

Hi Thomas,

Here's another spin of the spectre-v1 mitigations for 4.16.

Changes since v4.1: [1]
* Tweak the sanitization scheme yet again to make it even simpler. Now,
  instead of 'array_ptr' to get a sanitized pointer to an array element,
  just provide an array index sanitization helper 'array_idx' to be called
  after successfully validating the index is in bounds. I.e. in the
  exact same location one would otherwise put an lfence, place this
  sanitizer:

      if (idx < sz) {
          idx = array_idx(idx, sz);
          val = array[idx];
      }

  This lets the implementation include more sanity checking that the
  compiler can usually compile out. It otherwise appears to produce
  better assembly. This also cleans up the concern about comparing the
  value returned from array_ptr to create another speculation point.
  (Russell, Linus, Cyril)

* Drop the syscall_64_fastpath.  This is the straightforward patch from
  Linus that might also be in flight from Andy, but I went ahead and
  included it since I did not see it on LKML yet.

* Kill the MASK_NOSPEC macro and just open code it. (Andy)

* Add system-call-number sanitization to the slow path syscall table
  lookups.

* Redo the array_ptr conversions with array_idx.

* Update /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/spectre_v1 to indicate
  the new protections. It now reports "Vulnerable: Minimal user pointer
  sanitization". (Jiri)
