karg.hdr.id and port are indirectly controlled by user-space, hence leading to a potential exploitation of the Spectre variant 1 vulnerability.
This issue was detected with the help of Smatch: drivers/message/fusion/mptctl.c:1360 mptctl_getiocinfo() warn: potential spectre issue 'ioc->pfacts' [r] drivers/message/fusion/mptctl.c:2788 mptctl_hp_targetinfo() warn: potential spectre issue 'hd->sel_timeout' [r] (local cap) Fix this by sanitizing both karg.hdr.id and port before using them to index ioc->pfacts and hd->sel_timeout. Notice that given that speculation windows are large, the policy is to kill the speculation on the first load and not worry if it can be completed with a dependent load/store [1].
