"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\narm64/boot: Disable trapping of PMZR_EL0 writes to EL2\n\n__init_el2_fgt2() writes one mask to both HDFGRTR2_EL2 and HDFGWTR2_EL2.\nPMZR_EL0 is write-only, so its trap bit, nPMZR_EL0, exists only in\nHDFGWTR2_EL2 and is therefore never set: a PMZR_EL0 write from the host\ntraps to EL2, where the nVHE hypervisor has no handler and BUG()s. The\nkernel never writes PMZR_EL0, but kernel.perf_user_access=1 has the PMU\ndriver set PMUSERENR_EL0.UEN for a task with a user-read event, so a\nwrite from EL0 reaches the trap and takes the host down without a panic\nmessage.\n\nAccumulate the HDFGWTR2_EL2 bits separately, as __init_el2_fgt() already\ndoes for HDFGWTR_EL2, and set nPMZR_EL0 with the other FEAT_PMUv3p9\nbits."
