Subject: [PATCH] x86/spec-ctrl: Remove conditional IRQs-on-ness for INT
 $0x80/0x82 paths
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Before speculation defences, some paths in Xen could genuinely get away with
being IRQs-on at entry.  But XPTI invalidated this property on most paths, and
attempting to maintain it on the remaining paths was a mistake.

Fast forward, and DO_SPEC_CTRL_COND_IBPB (protection for AMD BTC/SRSO) is not
IRQ-safe, running with IRQs enabled in some cases.  The other actions taken on
these paths happen to be IRQ-safe.

Make entry_int82() and int80_direct_trap() unconditionally Interrupt Gates
rather than Trap Gates.  Remove the conditional re-adjustment of
int80_direct_trap() in smp_prepare_cpus(), and have entry_int82() explicitly
enable interrupts when safe to do so.

In smp_prepare_cpus(), with the conditional re-adjustment removed, the
clearing of pv_cr3 is the only remaining action gated on XPTI, and it is out
of place anyway, repeating work already done by smp_prepare_boot_cpu().  Drop
the entire if() condition to avoid leaving an incorrect vestigial remnant.

Also drop comments which make incorrect statements about when its safe to
enable interrupts.

This is XSA-446 / CVE-2023-46836
