8. Move charges at task migration (DEPRECATED!)
===============================================

THIS IS DEPRECATED!

It's expensive and unreliable! It's better practice to launch workload
tasks directly from inside their target cgroup. Use dedicated workload
cgroups to allow fine-grained policy adjustments without having to
move physical pages between control domains.

Users can move charges associated with a task along with task migration, that
is, uncharge task's pages from the old cgroup and charge them to the new cgroup.

Cross-Thread Return Address Predictions
=======================================

Certain AMD and Hygon processors are subject to a cross-thread return address
predictions vulnerability. When running in SMT mode and one sibling thread
transitions out of C0 state, the other sibling thread could use return target
predictions from the sibling thread that transitioned out of C0.

The Spectre v2 mitigations protect the Linux kernel, as it fills the return
address prediction entries with safe targets when context switching to the idle
thread. However, KVM does allow a VMM to prevent exiting guest mode when
transitioning out of C0. This could result in a guest-controlled return target
being consumed by the sibling thread.

Affected processors
-------------------

The following CPUs are vulnerable:

- AMD Family 17h processors
- Hygon Family 18h processors

Related CVEs
------------

The following CVE entry is related to this issue:

============== =======================================
CVE-2022-27672 Cross-Thread Return Address Predictions
============== =======================================

Problem
-------

Affected SMT-capable processors support 1T and 2T modes of execution when SMT
is enabled. In 2T mode, both threads in a core are executing code. For the
processor core to enter 1T mode, it is required that one of the threads
requests to transition out of the C0 state. This can be communicated with the
HLT instruction or with an MWAIT instruction that requests non-C0.
When the thread re-enters the C0 state, the processor transitions back
to 2T mode, assuming the other thread is also still in C0 state.

In affected processors, the return address predictor (RAP) is partitioned
depending on the SMT mode. For instance, in 2T mode each thread uses a private
16-entry RAP, but in 1T mode, the active thread uses a 32-entry RAP. Upon
transition between 1T/2T mode, the RAP contents are not modified but the RAP
pointers (which control the next return target to use for predictions) may
change. This behavior may result in return targets from one SMT thread being
used by RET predictions in the sibling thread following a 1T/2T switch. In
particular, a RET instruction executed immediately after a transition to 1T may
use a return target from the thread that just became idle. In theory, this
could lead to information disclosure if the return targets used do not come
from trustworthy code.

Attack scenarios
----------------

An attack can be mounted on affected processors by performing a series of CALL
instructions with targeted return locations and then transitioning out of C0
state.

Mitigation mechanism
--------------------

Before entering idle state, the kernel context switches to the idle thread. The
context switch fills the RAP entries (referred to as the RSB in Linux) with safe
targets by performing a sequence of CALL instructions.

Prevent a guest VM from directly putting the processor into an idle state by
intercepting HLT and MWAIT instructions.

Both mitigations are required to fully address this issue.

Mitigation control on the kernel command line
---------------------------------------------

Use existing Spectre v2 mitigations that will fill the RSB on context switch.

Mitigation control for KVM - module parameter
---------------------------------------------

By default, the KVM hypervisor mitigates this issue by intercepting guest
attempts to transition out of C0. A VMM can use the KVM_CAP_X86_DISABLE_EXITS
capability to override those interceptions, but since this is not common, the
mitigation that covers this path is not enabled by default.

The mitigation for the KVM_CAP_X86_DISABLE_EXITS capability can be turned on
using the boolean module parameter mitigate_smt_rsb, e.g.:
kvm.mitigate_smt_rsb=1

On CPUs with hardware mitigation for Spectre variant 2 (e.g. IBRS
or enhanced IBRS on x86), retpoline is automatically disabled at run time.

Systems which support enhanced IBRS (eIBRS) enable IBRS protection once at
boot, by setting the IBRS bit, and they're automatically protected against
Spectre v2 variant attacks, including cross-thread branch target injections
on SMT systems (STIBP). In other words, eIBRS enables STIBP too.

Legacy IBRS systems clear the IBRS bit on exit to userspace and
therefore explicitly enable STIBP for that

On x86, this will turn on STIBP to guard against attacks from the
sibling thread when the user program is running, and use IBPB to
flush the branch target buffer when switching to/from the program.
