If you have "L1D private" feature enabled and not "RFI Flush" you are vulnerable to meltdown attacks. "RFI Flush" is the key feature to mitigate the meltdown whatever the "L1D private" state. SEC_FTR_L1D_THREAD_PRIV is a feature for Power9 only. So the message should be as the truth table shows: CPU | L1D private | RFI Flush | sysfs ----|-------------|-----------|------------------------------------- P9 | False | False | Vulnerable P9 | False | True | Mitigation: RFI Flush P9 | True | False | Vulnerable: L1D private per thread P9 | True | True | Mitigation: RFI Flush, L1D private per thread P8 | False | False | Vulnerable P8 | False | True | Mitigation: RFI Flush Output before this fix: # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/meltdown Mitigation: RFI Flush, L1D private per thread # echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/rfi_flush # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/meltdown Mitigation: L1D private per thread Output after fix: # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/meltdown Mitigation: RFI Flush, L1D private per thread # echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/rfi_flush # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/meltdown Vulnerable: L1D private per thread Signed-off-by: Gustavo L.
