Linus Torvalds 533b220f7b arm64 updates for 5.8
- Branch Target Identification (BTI)
 	* Support for ARMv8.5-BTI in both user- and kernel-space. This
 	  allows branch targets to limit the types of branch from which
 	  they can be called and additionally prevents branching to
 	  arbitrary code, although kernel support requires a very recent
 	  toolchain.
 
 	* Function annotation via SYM_FUNC_START() so that assembly
 	  functions are wrapped with the relevant "landing pad"
 	  instructions.
 
 	* BPF and vDSO updates to use the new instructions.
 
 	* Addition of a new HWCAP and exposure of BTI capability to
 	  userspace via ID register emulation, along with ELF loader
 	  support for the BTI feature in .note.gnu.property.
 
 	* Non-critical fixes to CFI unwind annotations in the sigreturn
 	  trampoline.
 
 - Shadow Call Stack (SCS)
 	* Support for Clang's Shadow Call Stack feature, which reserves
 	  platform register x18 to point at a separate stack for each
 	  task that holds only return addresses. This protects function
 	  return control flow from buffer overruns on the main stack.
 
 	* Save/restore of x18 across problematic boundaries (user-mode,
 	  hypervisor, EFI, suspend, etc).
 
 	* Core support for SCS, should other architectures want to use it
 	  too.
 
 	* SCS overflow checking on context-switch as part of the existing
 	  stack limit check if CONFIG_SCHED_STACK_END_CHECK=y.
 
 - CPU feature detection
 	* Removed numerous "SANITY CHECK" errors when running on a system
 	  with mismatched AArch32 support at EL1. This is primarily a
 	  concern for KVM, which disabled support for 32-bit guests on
 	  such a system.
 
 	* Addition of new ID registers and fields as the architecture has
 	  been extended.
 
 - Perf and PMU drivers
 	* Minor fixes and cleanups to system PMU drivers.
 
 - Hardware errata
 	* Unify KVM workarounds for VHE and nVHE configurations.
 
 	* Sort vendor errata entries in Kconfig.
 
 - Secure Monitor Call Calling Convention (SMCCC)
 	* Update to the latest specification from Arm (v1.2).
 
 	* Allow PSCI code to query the SMCCC version.
 
 - Software Delegated Exception Interface (SDEI)
 	* Unexport a bunch of unused symbols.
 
 	* Minor fixes to handling of firmware data.
 
 - Pointer authentication
 	* Add support for dumping the kernel PAC mask in vmcoreinfo so
 	  that the stack can be unwound by tools such as kdump.
 
 	* Simplification of key initialisation during CPU bringup.
 
 - BPF backend
 	* Improve immediate generation for logical and add/sub
 	  instructions.
 
 - vDSO
 	- Minor fixes to the linker flags for consistency with other
 	  architectures and support for LLVM's unwinder.
 
 	- Clean up logic to initialise and map the vDSO into userspace.
 
 - ACPI
 	- Work around for an ambiguity in the IORT specification relating
 	  to the "num_ids" field.
 
 	- Support _DMA method for all named components rather than only
 	  PCIe root complexes.
 
 	- Minor other IORT-related fixes.
 
 - Miscellaneous
 	* Initialise debug traps early for KGDB and fix KDB cacheflushing
 	  deadlock.
 
 	* Minor tweaks to early boot state (documentation update, set
 	  TEXT_OFFSET to 0x0, increase alignment of PE/COFF sections).
 
 	* Refactoring and cleanup

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
 "A sizeable pile of arm64 updates for 5.8.

  Summary below, but the big two features are support for Branch Target
  Identification and Clang's Shadow Call stack. The latter is currently
  arm64-only, but the high-level parts are all in core code so it could
  easily be adopted by other architectures pending toolchain support

  Branch Target Identification (BTI):

   - Support for ARMv8.5-BTI in both user- and kernel-space. This allows
     branch targets to limit the types of branch from which they can be
     called and additionally prevents branching to arbitrary code,
     although kernel support requires a very recent toolchain.

   - Function annotation via SYM_FUNC_START() so that assembly functions
     are wrapped with the relevant "landing pad" instructions.

   - BPF and vDSO updates to use the new instructions.

   - Addition of a new HWCAP and exposure of BTI capability to userspace
     via ID register emulation, along with ELF loader support for the
     BTI feature in .note.gnu.property.

   - Non-critical fixes to CFI unwind annotations in the sigreturn
     trampoline.

  Shadow Call Stack (SCS):

   - Support for Clang's Shadow Call Stack feature, which reserves
     platform register x18 to point at a separate stack for each task
     that holds only return addresses. This protects function return
     control flow from buffer overruns on the main stack.

   - Save/restore of x18 across problematic boundaries (user-mode,
     hypervisor, EFI, suspend, etc).

   - Core support for SCS, should other architectures want to use it
     too.

   - SCS overflow checking on context-switch as part of the existing
     stack limit check if CONFIG_SCHED_STACK_END_CHECK=y.

  CPU feature detection:

   - Removed numerous "SANITY CHECK" errors when running on a system
     with mismatched AArch32 support at EL1. This is primarily a concern
     for KVM, which disabled support for 32-bit guests on such a system.

   - Addition of new ID registers and fields as the architecture has
     been extended.

   - Minor fixes and cleanups to system PMU drivers.

   - Unify KVM workarounds for VHE and nVHE configurations.

   - Sort vendor errata entries in Kconfig.

   - Update to the latest specification from Arm (v1.2).

   - Allow PSCI code to query the SMCCC version.

     root complexes.
