Pull x86 LAM (Linear Address Masking) support from Dave Hansen: "Add support for the new Linear Address Masking CPU feature. This is similar to ARM's Top Byte Ignore and allows userspace to store metadata in some bits of pointers without masking it out before use" * tag 'x86_mm_for_6.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86/mm/iommu/sva: Do not allow to set FORCE_TAGGED_SVA bit from outside x86/mm/iommu/sva: Fix error code for LAM enabling failure due to SVA selftests/x86/lam: Add test cases for LAM vs thread creation selftests/x86/lam: Add ARCH_FORCE_TAGGED_SVA test cases for linear-address masking selftests/x86/lam: Add inherit test cases for linear-address masking selftests/x86/lam: Add io_uring test cases for linear-address masking selftests/x86/lam: Add mmap and SYSCALL test cases for linear-address masking selftests/x86/lam: Add malloc and tag-bits test cases for linear-address masking x86/mm/iommu/sva: Make LAM and SVA mutually exclusive iommu/sva: Replace pasid_valid() helper with mm_valid_pasid() mm: Expose untagging mask in /proc/$PID/status x86/mm: Provide arch_prctl() interface for LAM x86/mm: Reduce untagged_addr() overhead for systems without LAM x86/uaccess: Provide untagged_addr() and remove tags before address check mm: Introduce untagged_addr_remote() x86/mm: Handle LAM on context switch x86: CPUID and CR3/CR4 flags for Linear Address Masking x86: Allow atomic MM_CONTEXT flags setting x86/mm: Rework address range check in get_user() and put_user()
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
