+On some architectures, when the kernel loads any userspace program it
+maps an ELF DSO into that program's address space.  This DSO is called
+the vDSO and it often contains useful and highly-optimized alternatives
+to real syscalls.
+
+These functions are called just like ordinary C function according to
+your platform's ABI.  Call them from a sensible context.  (For example,
+if you set CS on x86 to something strange, the vDSO functions are
+within their rights to crash.)  In addition, if you pass a bad
+pointer to a vDSO function, you might get SIGSEGV instead of -EFAULT.
+
+To find the DSO, parse the auxiliary vector passed to the program's
+entry point.  The AT_SYSINFO_EHDR entry will point to the vDSO.
+
+The vDSO uses symbol versioning; whenever you request a symbol from the
+vDSO, specify the version you are expecting.
+
+Programs that dynamically link to glibc will use the vDSO automatically.
+Otherwise, you can use the reference parser in Documentation/vDSO/parse_vdso.c.
+
+Unless otherwise noted, the set of symbols with any given version and the
+ABI of those symbols is considered stable.  It may vary across architectures,
+though.
+
+(As of this writing, this ABI documentation as been confirmed for x86_64.
+ The maintainers of the other vDSO-using architectures should confirm
+ that it is correct for their architecture.)

+
+The x86 architecture has quite a few different ways to jump into
+kernel code.  Most of these entry points are registered in
+arch/x86/kernel/traps.c and implemented in arch/x86/kernel/entry_64.S
+and arch/x86/ia32/ia32entry.S.
+
+The IDT vector assignments are listed in arch/x86/include/irq_vectors.h.
+
+Some of these entries are:
+
+ - system_call: syscall instruction from 64-bit code.
+
+ - ia32_syscall: int 0x80 from 32-bit or 64-bit code; compat syscall
+   either way.
+
+ - ia32_syscall, ia32_sysenter: syscall and sysenter from 32-bit
+   code
+
+ - interrupt: An array of entries.  Every IDT vector that doesn't
+   explicitly point somewhere else gets set to the corresponding
+   value in interrupts.  These point to a whole array of
+   magically-generated functions that make their way to do_IRQ with
+   the interrupt number as a parameter.
+
+ - emulate_vsyscall: int 0xcc, a special non-ABI entry used by
+   vsyscall emulation.
+
+ - APIC interrupts: Various special-purpose interrupts for things
+   like TLB shootdown.
+
+ - Architecturally-defined exceptions like divide_error.
+
+There are a few complexities here.  The different x86-64 entries
+have different calling conventions.  The syscall and sysenter
+instructions have their own peculiar calling conventions.  Some of
+the IDT entries push an error code onto the stack; others don't.
+IDT entries using the IST alternative stack mechanism need their own
+magic to get the stack frames right.  (You can find some
+documentation in the AMD APM, Volume 2, Chapter 8 and the Intel SDM,
+Volume 3, Chapter 6.)
+
+Dealing with the swapgs instruction is especially tricky.  Swapgs
+toggles whether gs is the kernel gs or the user gs.  The swapgs
+instruction is rather fragile: it must nest perfectly and only in
+single depth, it should only be used if entering from user mode to
+kernel mode and then when returning to user-space, and precisely
+so. If we mess that up even slightly, we crash.
+
+So when we have a secondary entry, already in kernel mode, we *must
+not* use SWAPGS blindly - nor must we forget doing a SWAPGS when it's
+not switched/swapped yet.
+
+Now, there's a secondary complication: there's a cheap way to test
+which mode the CPU is in and an expensive way.
+
+The cheap way is to pick this info off the entry frame on the kernel
+stack, from the CS of the ptregs area of the kernel stack:
+
+	xorl %ebx,%ebx
+	testl $3,CS+8(%rsp)
+	je error_kernelspace
+	SWAPGS
+
+The expensive (paranoid) way is to read back the MSR_GS_BASE value
+(which is what SWAPGS modifies):
+
+	movl $1,%ebx
+	movl $MSR_GS_BASE,%ecx
+	rdmsr
+	testl %edx,%edx
+	js 1f   /* negative -> in kernel */
+	SWAPGS
+	xorl %ebx,%ebx
+1:	ret
+
+and the whole paranoid non-paranoid macro complexity is about whether
+to suffer that RDMSR cost.
+
+If we are at an interrupt or user-trap/gate-alike boundary then we can
+use the faster check: the stack will be a reliable indicator of
+whether SWAPGS was already done: if we see that we are a secondary
+entry interrupting kernel mode execution, then we know that the GS
+base has already been switched. If it says that we interrupted
+user-space execution then we must do the SWAPGS.
+
+But if we are in an NMI/MCE/DEBUG/whatever super-atomic entry context,
+which might have triggered right after a normal entry wrote CS to the
+stack but before we executed SWAPGS, then the only safe way to check
+for GS is the slower method: the RDMSR.
+
+So we try only to mark those entry methods 'paranoid' that absolutely
+need the more expensive check for the GS base - and we generate all
+'normal' entry points with the regular (faster) entry macros.
