CVE-2026-64229

EUVD-2026-48637
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

x86/mm: Disable broadcast TLB flush when PCID is disabled

Booting with "nopcid" clears X86_FEATURE_PCID and keeps CR4.PCIDE from being
set to one. On AMD CPUs that support INVLPGB, broadcast TLB flushing remains
enabled.

There are two checks that decide whether the global ASID code runs,
mm_global_asid() and consider_global_asid(), that key off of the
X86_FEATURE_INVLPGB feature. Once an mm becomes active on more than three
CPUs, consider_global_asid() assigns it a global ASID, after which
flush_tlb_mm_range() takes the broadcast_tlb_flush() path using a non-zero
PCID. Issuing an INVLPGB with a non-zero PCID while CR4.PCIDE is not set
results in a #GP:

  Oops: general protection fault, kernel NULL pointer dereference 0x1: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI
  CPU: 158 UID: 0 PID: 3119 Comm: snap Not tainted 7.1.0-rc3 #1 PREEMPT(full)

  RIP: 0010:broadcast_tlb_flush
  Code: ... 89 da 48 83 c8 07 <0f> 01 fe eb 08 cc cc cc ...

   do_user_addr_fault
   exc_page_fault
   asm_exc_page_fault

All processors that support broadcast TLB invalidation also have PCID support,
so it is only the "nopcid" scenario that is of concern. In this situation just
disable the broadcast TLB support using the CPUID dependency support by making
X86_FEATURE_INVLPGB dependent on X86_FEATURE_PCID.
