2025-05-05x86/microcode: Consolidate the loader enablement checkingBorislav Petkov (AMD)4-28/+39
Consolidate the whole logic which determines whether the microcode loader should be enabled or not into a single function and call it everywhere. Well, almost everywhere - not in mk_early_pgtbl_32() because there the kernel is running without paging enabled and checking dis_ucode_ldr et al would require physical addresses and uglification of the code. But since this is 32-bit, the easier thing to do is to simply map the initrd unconditionally especially since that mapping is getting removed later anyway by zap_early_initrd_mapping() and avoid the uglification. In doing so, address the issue of old 486er machines without CPUID support, not booting current kernels.

2025-04-22x86/cpu: Help users notice when running old Intel microcodeDave Hansen1-0/+150
Old microcode is bad for users and for kernel developers. For users, it exposes them to known fixed security and/or functional issues. These obviously rarely result in instant dumpster fires in every environment. But it is as important to keep your microcode up to date as it is to keep your kernel up to date. Old microcode also makes kernels harder to debug. A developer looking at an oops need to consider kernel bugs, known CPU issues and unknown CPU issues as possible causes. If they know the microcode is up to date, they can mostly eliminate known CPU issues as the cause. Make it easier to tell if CPU microcode is out of date. Add a list of released microcode. If the loaded microcode is older than the release, tell users in a place that folks can find it: /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/old_microcode Tell kernel kernel developers about it with the existing taint flag: TAINT_CPU_OUT_OF_SPEC == Discussion == When a user reports a potential kernel issue, it is very common to ask them to reproduce the issue on mainline. Running mainline, they will (independently from the distro) acquire a more up-to-date microcode version list. If their microcode is old, they will get a warning about the taint and kernel developers can take that into consideration when debugging. Just like any other entry in "vulnerabilities/", users are free to make their own assessment of their exposure. == Microcode Revision Discussion == The microcode versions in the table were generated from the Intel microcode git repo: 8ac9378a8487 ("microcode-20241112 Release") which as of this writing lags behind the latest microcode-20250211. It can be argued that the versions that the kernel picks to call "old" should be a revision or two old. Which specific version is picked is less important to me than picking *a* version and enforcing it. This repository contains only microcode versions that Intel has deemed to be OS-loadable. It is quite possible that the BIOS has loaded a newer microcode than the latest in this repo. If this happens, the system is considered to have new microcode, not old. Specifically, the sysfs file and taint flag answer the question: Is the CPU running on the latest OS-loadable microcode, or something even later that the BIOS loaded? In other words, Intel never publishes an authoritative list of CPUs and latest microcode revisions. Until it does, this is the best that Linux can do. Also note that the "intel-ucode-defs.h" file is simple, ugly and has lots of magic numbers. That's on purpose and should allow a single file to be shared across lots of stable kernel regardless of if they have the new "VFM" infrastructure or not. It was generated with a dumb script. == FAQ == Q: Does this tell me if my system is secure or insecure? A: No. It only tells you if your microcode was old when the system booted. Q: Should the kernel warn if the microcode list itself is too old? A: No. New kernels will get new microcode lists, both mainline and stable. The only way to have an old list is to be running an old kernel in which case you have bigger problems. Q: Is this for security or functional issues? A: Both. Q: If a given microcode update only has functional problems but no security issues, will it be considered old? A: Yes. All microcode image versions within a microcode release are treated identically. Intel appears to make security updates without disclosing them in the release notes. Thus, all updates are considered to be security-relevant. Q: Who runs old microcode? A: Anybody with an old distro. This happens all the time inside of Intel where there are lots of weird systems in labs that might not be getting regular distro updates and might also be running rather exotic microcode images. Q: If I update my microcode after booting will it stop saying "Vulnerable"? A: No. Just like all the other vulnerabilies, you need to reboot before the kernel will reassess your vulnerability.

2025-03-19x86/microcode: Update the Intel processor flag scan checkSohil Mehta1-1/+1
The Family model check to read the processor flag MSR is misleading and potentially incorrect. It doesn't consider Family while comparing the model number. The original check did have a Family number but it got lost/moved during refactoring. intel_collect_cpu_info() is called through multiple paths such as early initialization, CPU hotplug as well as IFS image load. Some of these flows would be error prone due to the ambiguous check. Correct the processor flag scan check to use a Family number and update it to a VFM based one to make it more readable.

2025-03-10x86/microcode/AMD: Fix out-of-bounds on systems with CPU-less NUMA nodesFlorent Revest1-1/+1
Currently, load_microcode_amd() iterates over all NUMA nodes, retrieves their CPU masks and unconditionally accesses per-CPU data for the first CPU of each mask. According to Documentation/admin-guide/mm/numaperf.rst: "Some memory may share the same node as a CPU, and others are provided as memory only nodes." Therefore, some node CPU masks may be empty and wouldn't have a "first CPU". On a machine with far memory (and therefore CPU-less NUMA nodes): - cpumask_of_node(nid) is 0 - cpumask_first(0) is CONFIG_NR_CPUS - cpu_data(CONFIG_NR_CPUS) accesses the cpu_info per-CPU array at an index that is 1 out of bounds This does not have any security implications since flashing microcode is a privileged operation but I believe this has reliability implications by potentially corrupting memory while flashing a microcode update. When booting with CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS=y on an AMD machine that flashes a microcode update. I get the following splat: UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/microcode/amd.c:X:Y index 512 is out of range for type 'unsigned long[512]' [...] Call Trace: dump_stack __ubsan_handle_out_of_bounds load_microcode_amd request_microcode_amd reload_store kernfs_fop_write_iter vfs_write ksys_write do_syscall_64 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe Change the loop to go over only NUMA nodes which have CPUs before determining whether the first CPU on the respective node needs microcode update.

2024-11-25x86/microcode/AMD: Flush patch buffer mapping after applicationBorislav Petkov (AMD)1-5/+20
Due to specific requirements while applying microcode patches on Zen1 and 2, the patch buffer mapping needs to be flushed from the TLB after application. Do so. If not, unnecessary and unnatural delays happen in the boot process.

2024-10-25x86/microcode/intel: Remove unnecessary cache writeback and invalidationChang S. Bae1-8/+2
Currently, an unconditional cache flush is performed during every microcode update. Although the original changelog did not mention a specific erratum, this measure was primarily intended to address a specific microcode bug, the load of which has already been blocked by is_blacklisted(). Therefore, this cache flush is no longer necessary. Additionally, the side effects of doing this have been overlooked. It increases CPU rendezvous time during late loading, where the cache flush takes between 1x to 3.5x longer than the actual microcode update. Remove native_wbinvd() and update the erratum name to align with the latest errata documentation, document ID 334163 Version 022US.

2024-10-22x86/microcode/AMD: Split load_microcode_amd()Borislav Petkov (AMD)1-8/+17
This function should've been split a long time ago because it is used in two paths: 1) On the late loading path, when the microcode is loaded through the request_firmware interface 2) In the save_microcode_in_initrd() path which collects all the microcode patches which are relevant for the current system before the initrd with the microcode container has been jettisoned. In that path, it is not really necessary to iterate over the nodes on a system and match a patch however it didn't cause any trouble so it was left for a later cleanup However, that later cleanup was expedited by the fact that Jens was enabling "Use L3 as a NUMA node" in the BIOS setting in his machine and so this causes the NUMA CPU masks used in cpumask_of_node() to be generated *after* 2) above happened on the first node. Which means, all those masks were funky, wrong, uninitialized and whatnot, leading to explosions when dereffing c->microcode in load_microcode_amd(). So split that function and do only the necessary work needed at each stage.

2024-10-22x86/microcode/AMD: Pay attention to the stepping dynamicallyBorislav Petkov (AMD)1-8/+18
Commit in Fixes changed how a microcode patch is loaded on Zen and newer but the patch matching needs to happen with different rigidity, depending on what is being done: 1) When the patch is added to the patches cache, the stepping must be ignored because the driver still supports different steppings per system 2) When the patch is matched for loading, then the stepping must be taken into account because each CPU needs the patch matching its exact stepping Take care of that by making the matching smarter.

On Zen and newer, the family, model and stepping is part of the microcode patch ID so that the equivalence table the driver has been using, is not needed anymore. So switch the driver to use that from now on. The equivalence table in the microcode blob should still remain in case there's need to pass some additional information to the kernel loader.
