Peter Zijlstra 592a1c6066 x86/uaccess: Implement macros for CMPXCHG on user addresses
[ Upstream commit 989b5db215a2f22f89d730b607b071d964780f10 ]

Add support for CMPXCHG loops on userspace addresses.  Provide both an
"unsafe" version for tight loops that do their own uaccess begin/end, as
well as a "safe" version for use cases where the CMPXCHG is not buried in
a loop, e.g. KVM will resume the guest instead of looping when emulation
of a guest atomic accesses fails the CMPXCHG.

Provide 8-byte versions for 32-bit kernels so that KVM can do CMPXCHG on
guest PAE PTEs, which are accessed via userspace addresses.

Guard the asm_volatile_goto() variation with CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO_TIED_OUTPUT,
the "+m" constraint fails on some compilers that otherwise support
CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO_OUTPUT.

README

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.
