------------------ From: Gustavo A. R. Silva <gust...@embeddedor.com> commit de5372da605d3bca46e3102bab51b7e1c0e0a6f6 upstream. info.index can be 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/gpu/drm/i915/gvt/kvmgt.c:1232 intel_vgpu_ioctl() warn: potential spectre issue 'vgpu->vdev.region' [r] Fix this by sanitizing info.index before indirectly using it to index vgpu->vdev.region 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].
