In the end, we ended up with quite a lot more than I expected: - Support for ARMv8.3 Pointer Authentication in userspace (CRIU and kernel-side support to come later) - Support for per-thread stack canaries, pending an update to GCC that is currently undergoing review - Support for kexec_file_load(), which permits secure boot of a kexec payload but also happens to improve the performance of kexec dramatically because we can avoid the sucky purgatory code from userspace. Kdump will come later (requires updates to libfdt). - Optimisation of our dynamic CPU feature framework, so that all detected features are enabled via a single stop_machine() invocation - KPTI whitelisting of Cortex-A CPUs unaffected by Meltdown, so that they can benefit from global TLB entries when KASLR is not in use - 52-bit virtual addressing for userspace (kernel remains 48-bit) - Patch in LSE atomics for per-cpu atomic operations - Custom preempt.h implementation to avoid unconditional calls to preempt_schedule() from preempt_enable() - Support for the new 'SB' Speculation Barrier instruction - Vectorised implementation of XOR checksumming and CRC32 optimisations - Workaround for Cortex-A76 erratum #1165522 - Improved compatibility with Clang/LLD - Support for TX2 system PMUS for profiling the L3 cache and DMC - Reflect read-only permissions in the linear map by default - Ensure MMIO reads are ordered with subsequent calls to Xdelay() - Initial support for memory hotplug - Tweak the threshold when we invalidate the TLB by-ASID, so that mremap() performance is improved for ranges spanning multiple PMDs. - Minor refactoring and cleanups -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQEcBAABCgAGBQJcE4TmAAoJELescNyEwWM0Nr0H/iaU7/wQSzHyNXtZoImyKTul Blu2ga4/EqUrTU7AVVfmkl/3NBILWlgQVpY6tH6EfXQuvnxqD7CizbHyLdyO+z0S B5PsFUH2GLMNAi48AUNqGqkgb2knFbg+T+9IimijDBkKg1G/KhQnRg6bXX32mLJv Une8oshUPBVJMsHN1AcQknzKariuoE3u0SgJ+eOZ9yA2ZwKxP4yy1SkDt3xQrtI0 lojeRjxcyjTP1oGRNZC+BWUtGOT35p7y6cGTnBd/4TlqBGz5wVAJUcdoxnZ6JYVR O8+ob9zU+4I0+SKt80s7pTLqQiL9rxkKZ5joWK1pr1g9e0s5N5yoETXKFHgJYP8= =sYdt -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'arm64-upstream' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux Pull arm64 festive updates from Will Deacon: "In the end, we ended up with quite a lot more than I expected: - Support for ARMv8.3 Pointer Authentication in userspace (CRIU and kernel-side support to come later) - Support for per-thread stack canaries, pending an update to GCC that is currently undergoing review - Support for kexec_file_load(), which permits secure boot of a kexec payload but also happens to improve the performance of kexec dramatically because we can avoid the sucky purgatory code from userspace.
