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.
