    09:22:17 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] gnttab: don't use domain
    lock for serialization Instead use the affected domain's
    grant table lock, at once reducing the scopes during
    which locks are being held and hence allowing
    significantly better parallelism.

    fixup for copy Regardless of copy operations only
    setting GNTPIN_hst*, GNTPIN_dev* also need to be taken
    into account when deciding whether to clear
    _GTF_[read,writ]ing. At least for consistency with code
    elsewhere the read part better doesn't use any mask at
    all. This is XSA-230. (CVE-2017-12855)

    19:18:54 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] x86/grant: Disallow
    misaligned PTEs Pagetable entries must be aligned to
    function correctly. Disallow attempts from the guest to
    have a grant PTE created at a misaligned address, which
    would result in corruption of the L1 table with
    largely-guest-controlled values. This is XSA-227
    (CVE-2017-12137)

  - Prerequisite patch for xsa227-4.5.patch There is no
    macro ASSERT_UNREACHABLE before OVM3.4 which is needed

    (CVE-2017-12137)

  - From: Andrew Cooper Subject: grant_table: Default to v1,
    and disallow transitive grants The reference counting
    and locking discipline for transitive grants is broken.
    Their use is therefore declared out of security support.
    This is XSA-226. Transitive grants are expected to be
    unconditionally available with grant table v2. Hiding
    transitive grants alone is an ABI breakage for the
    guest. Modern versions of Linux and the Windows PV
    drivers use grant table v1, but older versions did use
    v2. In principle, disabling gnttab v2 entirely is the
    safer way to cause guests to avoid using transitive
    grants. However, some older guests which defaulted to
    using gnttab v2 don't tolerate falling back from v2 to
    v1 over migrate. This patch introduces a new command
    line option to control grant table behaviour. One
    suboption allows a choice of the maximum grant table
    version Xen will allow the guest to use, and defaults to
    v2. A different suboption independently controls whether
    transitive grants can be used. The default case is:
    gnttab=max_ver:2 To disable gnttab v2 entirely, use:
    gnttab=max_ver:1 To allow gnttab v2 and transitive
    grants, use: gnttab=max_ver:2,transitive

    Aug 2012 22:27:50 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Fix shared
    entry status for grant copy operation on paged-out g fn
    The unwind path was not clearing the shared entry status
    bits. This was BSOD-ing guests on network activity under
    certain configurations. Also: * sed the fixup method
    name to signal it's related to grant copy. * use atomic
    clear flag ops during fixup.
