CVE-2025-38560

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

x86/sev: Evict cache lines during SNP memory validation

An SNP cache coherency vulnerability requires a cache line eviction

mitigation when validating memory after a page state change to private.

The specific mitigation is to touch the first and last byte of each 4K

page that is being validated. There is no need to perform the mitigation

when performing a page state change to shared and rescinding validation.

CPUID bit Fn8000001F_EBX[31] defines the COHERENCY_SFW_NO CPUID bit

that, when set, indicates that the software mitigation for this

vulnerability is not needed.

Implement the mitigation and invoke it when validating memory (making it

private) and the COHERENCY_SFW_NO bit is not set, indicating the SNP

guest is vulnerable.
