For powerpc, s390, x86 and the main uapi linux/kvm.h header, none of
them entail changes in tooling.

 "ARM:
   - Improved guest IPA space support (32 to 52 bits)

   - RAS event delivery for 32bit

   - PMU fixes

   - Guest entry hardening

   - Various cleanups

   - Port of dirty_log_test selftest

   - Nested HV KVM support for radix guests on POWER9. The performance
     is much better than with PR KVM. Migration and arbitrary level of
     nesting is supported.

   - Disable nested HV-KVM on early POWER9 chips that need a particular
     hardware bug workaround

   - One VM per core mode to prevent potential data leaks

   - PCI pass-through optimization

   - merge ppc-kvm topic branch and kvm-ppc-fixes to get a better base

  s390:
   - Initial version of AP crypto virtualization via vfio-mdev

   - Improvement for vfio-ap

   - Set the host program identifier

   - Optimize page table locking

  x86:
   - Enable nested virtualization by default

<title>kvm: x86: Add exception payload fields to kvm_vcpu_events</title>

<content type='text'>
The per-VM capability KVM_CAP_EXCEPTION_PAYLOAD (to be introduced in a
later commit) adds the following fields to struct kvm_vcpu_events:
exception_has_payload, exception_payload, and exception.pending.

With this capability set, all of the details of vcpu-&gt;arch.exception,
including the payload for a pending exception, are reported to
userspace in response to KVM_GET_VCPU_EVENTS.

With this capability clear, the original ABI is preserved, and the
exception.injected field is set for either pending or injected
exceptions.

When userspace calls KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS with
KVM_CAP_EXCEPTION_PAYLOAD clear, exception.injected is no longer
translated to exception.pending. KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS can now only
establish a pending exception when KVM_CAP_EXCEPTION_PAYLOAD is set.

<title>tools/headers: Synchronize kernel ABI headers, v4.17-rc1</title>
<updated>2018-04-17T12:47:39+00:00</updated>

<id>e2f73a1828e9ffd2765ce1726b9a9c6e022e3cd6</id>
<content type='text'>
Sync the following tooling headers with the latest kernel version:

  tools/arch/arm/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h
    - New ABI: KVM_REG_ARM_*

  tools/arch/x86/include/asm/required-features.h
    - Removal of NEED_LA57 dependency

  tools/arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h
    - New KVM ABI: KVM_SYNC_X86_*

  tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/mman-common.h
    - New ABI: MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE flag

  tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h
    - New ABI: BPF_F_SEQ_NUMBER functions

  tools/include/uapi/linux/if_link.h
    - New ABI: IFLA tun and rmnet support

  tools/include/uapi/linux/kvm.h
    - New ABI: hyperv eventfd and CONN_ID_MASK support plus header cleanups

  tools/include/uapi/sound/asound.h
    - New ABI: SNDRV_PCM_FORMAT_FIRST PCM format specifier

  tools/perf/arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl
    - The x86 system call table description changed due to the ptregs changes and the renames, in:

	d5a00528b58c: syscalls/core, syscalls/x86: Rename struct pt_regs-based sys_*() to __x64_sys_*()
	5ac9efa3c50d: syscalls/core, syscalls/x86: Clean up compat syscall stub naming convention
	ebeb8c82ffaf: syscalls/x86: Use 'struct pt_regs' based syscall calling for IA32_EMULATION and x32

Also fix the x86 syscall table warning:

  -Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl' differs from latest version at 'arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl'
  +Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/perf/arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl' differs from latest version at 'arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl'

None of these changes impact existing tooling code, so we only have to copy the kernel version.

Sync the following tooling headers with the latest kernel version:

  tools/arch/arm/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h
    - New ABI: KVM_REG_ARM_*

  tools/arch/x86/include/asm/required-features.h
    - Removal of NEED_LA57 dependency

  tools/arch/x86/include/uapi/asm/kvm.h
    - New KVM ABI: KVM_SYNC_X86_*

  tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/mman-common.h
    - New ABI: MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE flag

  tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h
    - New ABI: BPF_F_SEQ_NUMBER functions

  tools/include/uapi/linux/if_link.h
    - New ABI: IFLA tun and rmnet support

  tools/include/uapi/linux/kvm.h
    - New ABI: hyperv eventfd and CONN_ID_MASK support plus header cleanups

  tools/include/uapi/sound/asound.h
    - New ABI: SNDRV_PCM_FORMAT_FIRST PCM format specifier

  tools/perf/arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl
    - The x86 system call table description changed due to the ptregs changes and the renames, in:

	d5a00528b58c: syscalls/core, syscalls/x86: Rename struct pt_regs-based sys_*() to __x64_sys_*()
	5ac9efa3c50d: syscalls/core, syscalls/x86: Clean up compat syscall stub naming convention
	ebeb8c82ffaf: syscalls/x86: Use 'struct pt_regs' based syscall calling for IA32_EMULATION and x32

Also fix the x86 syscall table warning:

  -Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl' differs from latest version at 'arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl'
  +Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/perf/arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl' differs from latest version at 'arch/x86/entry/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl'

None of these changes impact existing tooling code, so we only have to copy the kernel version.

For each arch in tools/perf/arch, grab a copy of errno.h.

This is a pre-req to generate an architecture specific mapping of errno
numbers to their names.  This errno mapping can be used by perf trace to
support cross-architecture trace reports and to get rid of the
audit-libs dependency.

<content type='text'>
After the SPDX license tags were added a number of tooling headers got out of
sync with their kernel variants, generating lots of build warnings.

Sync them:

 - tools/arch/x86/include/asm/disabled-features.h,
   tools/arch/x86/include/asm/required-features.h,
   tools/include/linux/hash.h:

     Remove the SPDX tag where the kernel version does not have it.

 - tools/include/asm-generic/bitops/__fls.h,
   tools/include/asm-generic/bitops/arch_hweight.h,
   tools/include/asm-generic/bitops/const_hweight.h,
   tools/include/asm-generic/bitops/fls.h,
   tools/include/asm-generic/bitops/fls64.h,
   tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/ioctls.h,
   tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/mman-common.h,
   tools/include/uapi/sound/asound.h,
   tools/include/uapi/linux/kvm.h,
   tools/include/uapi/linux/perf_event.h,
   tools/include/uapi/linux/sched.h,
   tools/include/uapi/linux/vhost.h,
   tools/include/uapi/sound/asound.h:

     Add the SPDX tag of the respective kernel header.

 - tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf_common.h,
   tools/include/uapi/linux/fcntl.h,
   tools/include/uapi/linux/hw_breakpoint.h,
   tools/include/uapi/linux/mman.h,
   tools/include/uapi/linux/stat.h,

     Change the tag to the kernel header version:

       -/* SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 */
       +/* SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note */

Also sync other header details:

 - include/uapi/sound/asound.h:

     Fix pointless end of line whitespace noise the header grew in this cycle.

 - tools/arch/x86/lib/memcpy_64.S:

     Sync the code and add tools/include/asm/export.h with dummy wrappers
     to support building the kernel side code in a tooling header environment.

 - tools/include/uapi/asm-generic/mman.h,
   tools/include/uapi/linux/bpf.h:

     Sync other details that don't impact tooling's use of the ABIs.

<title>License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with a license</title>
<updated>2017-11-02T10:20:11+00:00</updated>

<id>e2be04c7f9958dde770eeb8b30e829ca969b37bb</id>
<content type='text'>
Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either
incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the
license under which the file is supposed to be.  This makes it hard for
compliance tools to determine the correct license.

Update these files with an SPDX license identifier.  The identifier was
chosen based on the license information in the file.

GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license
identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is
the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall
exception:

   NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
   services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
   of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".

This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL
code, without confusing license compliance tools.

Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed
under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX
identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier.  The format
is:
        ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE)

SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be
used instead of the full boiler plate text.  The update does not remove
existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case
basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will
happen in a separate step.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.  See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.

Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2.  Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:

   NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
   services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
   of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".

otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.

Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier.  The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception.  SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
