Speculation Control
===================
Quite some CPUs have speculation-related misfeatures which are in
fact vulnerabilities causing data leaks in various forms even across
privilege domains.
The kernel provides mitigation for such vulnerabilities in various
forms. Some of these mitigations are compile-time configurable and some
can be supplied on the kernel command line.
There is also a class of mitigations which are very expensive, but they can
be restricted to a certain set of processes or tasks in controlled
environments. The mechanism to control these mitigations is via
:manpage:`prctl(2)`.
There are two prctl options which are related to this:
* PR_GET_SPECULATION_CTRL
* PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL
PR_GET_SPECULATION_CTRL
-----------------------
PR_GET_SPECULATION_CTRL returns the state of the speculation misfeature
which is selected with arg2 of prctl(2). The return value uses bits 0-3 with
the following meaning:
==== ====================== ==================================================
Bit Define Description
==== ====================== ==================================================
0 PR_SPEC_PRCTL Mitigation can be controlled per task by
PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL.
1 PR_SPEC_ENABLE The speculation feature is enabled, mitigation is
disabled.
2 PR_SPEC_DISABLE The speculation feature is disabled, mitigation is
enabled.
3 PR_SPEC_FORCE_DISABLE Same as PR_SPEC_DISABLE, but cannot be undone. A
subsequent prctl(..., PR_SPEC_ENABLE) will fail.
4 PR_SPEC_DISABLE_NOEXEC Same as PR_SPEC_DISABLE, but the state will be
cleared on :manpage:`execve(2)`.
==== ====================== ==================================================
If all bits are 0 the CPU is not affected by the speculation misfeature.
If PR_SPEC_PRCTL is set, then the per-task control of the mitigation is
available. If not set, prctl(PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL) for the speculation
misfeature will fail.
.. _set_spec_ctrl:
PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL
-----------------------
PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL allows to control the speculation misfeature, which
is selected by arg2 of :manpage:`prctl(2)` per task. arg3 is used to hand
in the control value, i.e. either PR_SPEC_ENABLE or PR_SPEC_DISABLE or
PR_SPEC_FORCE_DISABLE.

취약점 완화의 태스크별 제어
1-23많은 CPU에는 권한 영역을 넘어 여러 형태의 데이터 유출을 일으키는 추측 실행 관련 결함이 있습니다. 커널은 compile-time 설정이나 kernel command line 등 여러 방식으로 완화를 제공합니다.
일부 완화는 비용이 매우 크지만 통제된 환경에서는 특정 프로세스나 태스크에만 제한할 수 있습니다. 이 태스크별 제어는 `prctl(2)`의 `PR_GET_SPECULATION_CTRL`과 `PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL`을 사용합니다.

PR_GET_SPECULATION_CTRL
24-53`PR_GET_SPECULATION_CTRL`은 `prctl(2)`의 arg2로 선택한 추측 실행 결함의 상태를 반환합니다.
반환값의 각 define은 지원 여부와 현재 완화 상태를 나타냅니다.
모든 비트가 0이면 CPU가 해당 추측 실행 결함의 영향을 받지 않습니다. `PR_SPEC_PRCTL`이 없으면 해당 결함에 대한 `PR_SET_SPECULATION_CTRL` 호출은 실패합니다.
PR_GET_SPECULATION_CTRL

PR_GET_SPECULATION_CTRL returns the state of the speculation misfeature
which is selected with arg2 of prctl(2). The return value uses bits 0-3 with

요약·해설
spec_ctrl.rst:1-116비용이 큰 추측 실행 완화를 태스크별로 제어할 때는 먼저 GET 결과의 `PR_SPEC_PRCTL` 지원을 확인해야 합니다. `PR_SPEC_FORCE_DISABLE`은 되돌릴 수 없고 `PR_SPEC_DISABLE_NOEXEC`은 execve에서 해제된다는 수명 차이가 핵심입니다.
