The kernel sets it back to NULL when it encounters a non-NULL ptr, independently
of whether it was nesting over a rseq c.s. or not. Updating to:
* Updated by user-space, which sets the address of the currently

If you're closely inspecting a program with single-stepping, and the user
really want to single-step through the rseq c.s., those flags can be set by
the user or debugger to allow this single-stepping to proceed. It's then up
to the user/tool to ensure mutual exclusion with other rseq c.s. by other
means. One of its uses is for implementers of rseq c.s. assembly code, where
they may want to single-step through that code while ensuring consistency
through other mechanisms (e.g. mutual exclusion, or running single-threaded).

Actually, given that this all needs to be in an inline assembly, it
makes no sense to talk about "compiler barrier" anymore. I'll update
the last part.
The "[start_ip] tag moves just after the paragraph at "1.".

It should have been "at or after":

You bring a good point. Although it has no impact in practice, the
"start_ip" can indicate the address right *after* the store to rseq_cs.
I'll change the documentation and user-space implementation accordingly.

I'll add the following enum to uapi rseq.h:
enum rseq_cpu_id_state {
RSEQ_CPU_ID_UNINITIALIZED = -1,
RSEQ_CPU_ID_REGISTRATION_FAILED = -2,
};
And use it both in the user-space library and in the kernel
"reset" code.

All the discussion about not fixing up while executing signal
handler was relevant with Paul Turner's original approach,
but now that we have rseq critical section descriptors that
contain the start_ip and post_commit_offset, guaranteeing that
the rseq_cs pointer is cleared before returning to a signal handler
is not relevant anymore.
I'll use __put_user rather than clear_user() in order to be consistent
with all other updates that provide single-copy atomicity guarantees.

I don't think xor is the operation we want here. But yes, using
masks tremendously simplifies the code. I did those changes
