Pull x86 FRED updates from Thomas Gleixner: - Enable FRED right after init_mem_mapping() because at that point the early IDT fault handler is replaced by the real fault handler. The real fault handler retrieves the faulting address from the stack frame and not from CR2 when the FRED feature is set. But that obviously only works when FRED is enabled in the CPU as well. - Set SS to __KERNEL_DS when enabling FRED to prevent a corner case where ERETS can observe a SS mismatch and raises a #GP. * tag 'x86-fred-2024-09-17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: x86/entry: Set FRED RSP0 on return to userspace instead of context switch x86/msr: Switch between WRMSRNS and WRMSR with the alternatives mechanism x86/entry: Test ti_work for zero before processing individual bits x86/fred: Set SS to __KERNEL_DS when enabling FRED x86/fred: Enable FRED right after init_mem_mapping() x86/fred: Move FRED RSP initialization into a separate function x86/fred: Parse cmdline param "fred=" in cpu_parse_early_param()
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 reStructuredText 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.
