Linux kernel source tree
bfc62c5985
Hardware tag-based KASAN relies on Memory Tagging Extension (MTE) feature and requires it to be enabled. MTE supports This patch adds a new mte_enable_kernel() helper, that enables MTE in Synchronous mode in EL1 and is intended to be called from KASAN runtime during initialization. The Tag Checking operation causes a synchronous data abort as a consequence of a tag check fault when MTE is configured in synchronous mode. As part of this change enable match-all tag for EL1 to allow the kernel to access user pages without faulting. This is required because the kernel does not have knowledge of the tags set by the user in a page. Note: For MTE, the TCF bit field in SCTLR_EL1 affects only EL1 in a similar way as TCF0 affects EL0. MTE that is built on top of the Top Byte Ignore (TBI) feature hence we enable it as part of this patch as well.

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.
