Subject: [merged mm-stable] mm-trace-decode-mte-and-shadow-stack-vma-flags.patch removed from -mm tree
Date: Thu, 08 Oct 2026 22:56:01 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261009055601.B3AB91F00893@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
The quilt patch titled
Subject: mm: trace: decode MTE and shadow stack VMA flags
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
mm-trace-decode-mte-and-shadow-stack-vma-flags.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch
of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: mm: trace: decode MTE and shadow stack VMA flags
Date: Wed, 2 Sep 2026 14:45:09 +0800
show_vma_flags(), which is used by VMA tracepoints and %pGv, leaves
architecture-specific HIGH_ARCH_* bits unnamed. Arm64 MTE flags and user
shadow stack flags are therefore printed as raw hexadecimal values.
These bit positions are shared between architectures. For example, bit 37
represents VM_MTE_ALLOWED on arm64 but VM_SHADOW_STACK on x86, so a shared
HIGH_ARCH_* bit cannot be given an unconditional name.
Add conditionally compiled names for VM_MTE, VM_MTE_ALLOWED and
VM_SHADOW_STACK. Keep the configuration guards aligned with the
definitions of these aliases so each shared bit position is decoded
according to the target architecture.
For example, an arm64 VMA containing VM_MTE_ALLOWED is now printed as:
...|account|mte_allowed|...
instead of:
...|account|0x2000000000
