Hi,

This series improves function return address protection for the arm64 kernel, by
compiling the kernel with ARMv8.3 Pointer Authentication instructions (referred
ptrauth hereafter). This should help protect the kernel against attacks using
return-oriented programming.

Changes since v6 [1]:
 - Dropped patch "arm64: create macro to park cpu in an infinite loop" as this
   clean up patch is not relevant for this series.
 - Fixed backtrace when Function graph tracer is used as pointed by James.
 - Added DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS config dependency as pointed by James.
 - Several minor comments from Vincenzo.
 - Added Reviewed-bys from James and Vincenzo.
 - Rebased the patch series to v5.6-rc5.

Changes since v5 [2]:
 - Added a new patch(arm64: cpufeature: Move cpu capability..) to move cpucapability
   type helpers in cpufeature.c file. This makes adding new cpucapability easier.
 - Moved kernel key restore to function __cpu_setup(proc.S) as suggested by Catalin.
 - More comments for as-option Kconfig option for concerns raised by Masahiro.
 - Clarified comments for -march=armv8.3-a non-integrated assembler option.

Some additional work not implemented below will be taken up separately:
 - kdump tools may need some rework to work with ptrauth. The kdump
   tools may need the ptrauth information to strip PAC bits. This will
   be sent in a separate patch.
 - Few more ptrauth generic lkdtm tests as requested by Kees Cook.
 - Generate compile time warnings if requested Kconfig feature not 
   supported by compilers.
 - KVM host will now need just APIA key to be saved and restored. Userpace
   should also behave according to it. More details here [3].

This complete series can be found at (git://linux-arm.org/linux-ak.git PAC_mainline_v7)
for reference.

Patch 5 in this series "arm64: ptrauth: Add bootup/runtime flags for __cpu_setup" will
have minor conflict with Ionela's commit "87a1f063464afd9 (arm64: trap to EL1 accesses to
AMU counters from EL0)" in -next.

Feedback welcome!

Thanks,
Amit Daniel
