x86 shadow: Insufficient TLB flushing when using PCID

ISSUE DESCRIPTION Use of Process Context Identifiers PCID was introduced into Xen in order to improve performance after XSA-254 and in particular its Meltdown sub-issue. This enablement implied changes to the TLB flushing logic. One aspect which was overlooked is the safety of switching between...

ISSUE DESCRIPTION Use of Process Context Identifiers PCID was introduced into Xen in order to improve performance after XSA-254 and in particular its Meltdown sub-issue. This enablement implied changes to the TLB flushing logic. The particular case of context switch to a vCPU of a PCID-enabled...

x86: DoS from attempting to use INVPCID with a non-canonical addresses

ISSUE DESCRIPTION The INVPCID instruction raises GP0 if an attempt is made to invalidate a non-canonical address. Older flushing mechanisms such as INVLPG tolerate this without error, and perform no action. There is one guest accessible path in Xen where a non-canonical address was passed into th...
