gpp_maybe Security update for the linux kernel
slessp4-kernel-20180526-13635

The SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 SP4 kernel was updated to receive various security and bugfixes. This update main focus is a regression fix in SystemV IPC handling. (bsc#1093600) The following non-security bugs were fixed: - Drop cBPF SSBD as classic BPF does not really have a proper concept of pointers, and without eBPF maps the out-of-bounds access in speculative execution branch can't be mounted. Moreoever, seccomp BPF uses only such a subset of BPF that can only do absolute indexing, and therefore seccomp data buffer boundarier can't be crossed. Information condensed from Alexei and Kees. - ibrs used instead of retpoline on Haswell processor with spectre_v2=retpoline (bsc#1092497) - ib/mlx4: Convert slave port before building address-handle (bug#919382 FATE#317529). - KABI protect struct _lowcore (bsc#1089386). - Update config files, add Spectre mitigation for s390x (bnc#1089386, LTC#166572). - Update s390 config files (bsc#1089386). - fanotify: fix logic of events on child (bsc#1013018). - ipc/msg: Fix faulty parsing of msgctl args (bsc#1093600,bsc#1072689). - ocfs2/dlm: Fix up kABI in dlm_ctxt (bsc#1070404). - ocfs2/dlm: wait for dlm recovery done when migrating all lock resources (bsc#1013018). - powerpc, KVM: Split HVMODE_206 cpu feature bit into separate HV and architecture bits (bsc#1087082). - powerpc: Fix /proc/cpuinfo revision for POWER9 DD2 (FATE#325713, bsc#1093710). - s390/cio: update chpid descriptor after resource accessibility event (bnc#1091659, LTC#167429). - s390/dasd: fix IO error for newly defined devices (bnc#1091659, LTC#167398). - s390/qdio: fix access to uninitialized qdio_q fields (bnc#1091659, LTC#168037). - s390/qeth: on channel error, reject further cmd requests (bnc#1088343, LTC#165985). - s390: add automatic detection of the spectre defense (bnc#1089386, LTC#166572). - s390: add optimized array_index_mask_nospec (bnc#1089386, LTC#166572). - s390: add sysfs attributes for spectre (bnc#1089386, LTC#166572). - s390: correct module section names for expoline code revert (bsc#1089386). - s390: correct nospec auto detection init order (bnc#1089386, LTC#166572). - s390: do not bypass BPENTER for interrupt system calls (bnc#1089386, LTC#166572). - s390: fix retpoline build on 31bit (bsc#1089386). - s390: improve cpu alternative handling for gmb and nobp (bnc#1089386, LTC#166572). - s390: introduce execute-trampolines for branches (bnc#1089386, LTC#166572). - s390: move nobp parameter functions to nospec-branch.c (bnc#1089386, LTC#166572). - s390: report spectre mitigation via syslog (bnc#1089386, LTC#166572). - s390: run user space and KVM guests with modified branch prediction (bnc#1089386, LTC#166572). - s390: scrub registers on kernel entry and KVM exit (bnc#1089386, LTC#166572). - x86, mce: Fix mce_start_timer semantics (bsc#1090607). - x86/kaiser: symbol kaiser_set_shadow_pgd() exported with non GPL
