commit 0cb5b30698fdc8f6b4646012e3acb4ddce430788 upstream. Guest GPR values are live in the hardware GPRs at VM-exit. Do not leave any guest values in hardware GPRs after the guest GPR values are saved to the vcpu_vmx structure. This is a partial mitigation for CVE 2017-5715 and CVE 2017-5753. Specifically, it defeats the Project Zero PoC for CVE 2017-5715.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
