commit a0b823dca2ecb1b0b0d78dfa46bb7445b60ac8bd Author: Bertrand Marquis <bertrand.marquis@xxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Tue May 3 10:38:30 2022 +0100 Commit: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@xxxxxxx> CommitDate: Wed Aug 3 14:58:08 2022 -0700 xen/arm: Advertise workaround 1 if we apply 3 SMCC_WORKAROUND_3 is handling both Spectre v2 and spectre BHB. So when a guest is asking if we support workaround 1, tell yes if we apply workaround 3 on exception entry as it handles it. This will allow guests not supporting Spectre BHB but impacted by spectre v2 to still handle it correctly. The modified behaviour is coherent with what the Linux kernel does in KVM for guests. While there use ARM_SMCCC_SUCCESS instead of 0 for the return code value for workaround detection to be coherent with Workaround 2 handling.
