[PATCH v6 00/26] arm64: Memory Tagging Extension user-space support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This is version 6 (5th 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 for-next/mte

There are no ABI changes since v4/v5. I'll push these patches into
linux-next for wider coverage, aiming for merging into 5.9. There are
still some acks needed on the core mm and fs patches in the series.
Thanks for the review/acks on v5.

An important note, patch 7 introduces a core mm change to
__split_huge_page_tail() so that it transfers the PG_arch_* flags from
the head page to the tail ones. My understanding is that it shouldn't
break anything but a more informed opinion from the mm folk is needed.

Changes in this version:

- __split_huge_page_tail() function update to preserve the PG_arch_*
  flags.

- copy_mount_options() simplified with a fall-back to byte-by-byte
  copying. It turns out we arm64 can't guarantee an exact
  copy_from_user() with intra-page (tag) faults.

- Dropped CONFIG_ARCH_USES_PG_ARCH_2 in favour of simply guarding
  PG_arch_2 by CONFIG_64BIT.

- Added comments on where the new arch_swap_* and __HAVE_ARCH_SWAP_*
  macros should be defined by the arch code if they need to be
  overridden.

- Fixed broken rebase conflict resolution in v5 re-introducing
  asm-generic/pgtable.h.

- Added the acks received so far.
