This is version 7 (6th 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 have been no further ABI changes and still aiming for a 5.9 merge. I would be grateful for acks (or naks) on the following patches: mm: [PATCH v7 06/29] mm: Add PG_arch_2 page flag [PATCH v7 07/29] mm: Preserve the PG_arch_2 flag in __split_huge_page_tail() [PATCH v7 13/29] mm: Introduce arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() fs: [PATCH v7 24/29] fs: Handle intra-page faults in copy_mount_options() arm64 KVM (small new addition in v7): [PATCH v7 02/29] arm64: mte: CPU feature detection and initial sysreg configuration Changes in this version: - __split_huge_page_tail() function update to preserve the PG_arch_2 flag only. The PG_arch_1 will be submitted separately since s390 and x86 may be affected. - ptrace NT_ARM_TAGGED_ADDR_CTRL regset for access to the tagged address ABI and MTE configuration of a process, together with documentation update. - Kconfig update to check for the presence of the STGM instruction in addition to '.arch armv8.5-a+memtag'. A late architecture update introduced the LDGM/STGM and there are binutils versions out there that don't support it. - Re-ordering of the CNP and MTE initialisation to cater for late secondary CPU bring-up (post the arch_initcall()).
