[PATCH v8 00/28] arm64: Memory Tagging Extension user-space support

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

 



This is version 8 (version 7 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 aiming for a 5.10 merge.
While there is an ongoing discussion on allowing the prctl() to act on
all threads of a process, this can be implemented separately if actually
needed (I hope not).

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:

- Rebased onto v5.9-rc2.

- The MTE initialisation (SCTLR_EL1, GCR_EL1, MAIR_EL1) is now done in
  __cpu_setup before the MMU is enabled. This will be needed for the
  subsequent in-kernel MTE support and also simplifies the CnP
  interaction. The "downside" is that we won't allow CPUs with mixed MTE
  features (which isn't really a downside).

- print_pstate() now shows the TCO bit.

- Updates following the regset_user_copyout() and
  get_user_pages_remote() changes in mainline.
