Hi, This is the third version (second version here [1]) of the series adding user-space support for the ARMv8.5 Memory Tagging Extension ([2], [3]). The patches are also available on this branch: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux devel/mte-v3 Changes in this version: - Ignore asynchronous tag check faults caused by the kernel accessing user space (uaccess routines). One of the reasons is that the kernel has a few places where it over-reads the user buffer (copy_mount_options(), strncpy_from user()) causing an incorrect reporting of a tag check fault. The second reason is that such asynchronous tag check fault in uaccess was reported as a SIGSEGV while the uaccess synchronous faults usually cause an error being returned (-EFAULT). - Device Tree support for marking a memory node as MTE-capable. MTE will only be enabled if all the memory nodes support the feature. In the absence of any memory node in the DT or if the system is booted with ACPI, MTE will be disabled. - ptrace() support to access the tags in another process address space. See the documentation patch for details. - fs patch for copy_mount_options() to cope with in-page faults. Prior to 5.7, this function had a byte-by-byte fallback. It has since been updated so that a fault in the first page would lead to the copy being aborted altogether. - GCR_EL1 restoring after a CPU suspend. - Fix the pgattr_change_is_safe() to only allow changes between Normal and Normal-Tagged. - Update a BUILD_BUG on x86 for NSIGSEGV != 7 following the generic value update. - Rebased to 5.7-rc2. Swap support is available but not included with this series as we'd like some feedback from linux-mm folk on the right approach. To be posted shortly. Kselftest patches will also be made available soon. To be decided/implemented: - mmap(tagged_addr, PROT_MTE) pre-tagging the memory with the tag given in the tagged_addr hint. - coredump (user) to also dump the tags.
