Subject: [PATCH v4 0/4] arm64: add Armv8.3 pointer authentication enhancements
Date: Fri, 10 Jul 2020 13:30:06 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1594368010-4419-1-git-send-email-amit.kachhap@arm.com> (raw)

These patch series adds support for Armv8.3 pointer authentication
enhanced features mandatory for Armv8.6 and optional for Armv8.3.
These features are,

 * Enhanced PAC generation algorithm (ARMv8.3-pauth2).
 * Generate fault when authenticate instruction fails (ARMV8.3-FPAC).

More details can be found here [1].

Changes since v3 [2]:
* Added a new patch "arm64: kprobe: clarify the comment of steppable hint instructions"
  as suggested in the last iteration.
* Removed the ptrauth fault handler from el0 compat handler as pointed
  by Dave.
* Mentioned the new feature name clearly as ARMV8.3-FPAC and ARMv8.3-pauth2
  as per ARMv8-A reference manual.
* Commit logs cleanup. 

Changes since v2 [3]:
* Dropped the patch "arm64: cpufeature: Fix the handler for address authentication"
* Added new matching function for address authentication as generic
  matching function has_cpuid_feature is specific for LOWER_SAFE
  features. This was suggested by Suzuki [3].
* Disabled probe of Authenticate ptrauth instructions as per Mark
  Brown's merged changes of whitelisting of hint instructions.

This series is based on kernel version v5.8-rc4.

Regards,
Amit
