Wire up the rseq system call on powerpc.
This provides an ABI improving the speed of a user-space getcpu
operation on powerpc by skipping the getcpu system call on the fast
path, as well as improving the speed of user-space operations on per-cpu
data compared to using load-reser

Does this attached patch perhaps fix the ARM case?
It just uses FPE_FLTUNK as the default si_code for SIGFPE, which seems
sane enough. And then gets rid of FPE_FIXME, which should resolve the
nasty case.
Hmm? Entirely untested, and I didn't really look at the test-case in
question since I can't r

This is an update of a series I posted a long time ago [1], updating
the IPC subsystem to pass down 64-bit time stamps to user space.
In particular, for sys_msgctl, sys_semctl and sys_shmctl, I do not
introduce a completely new set of replacement system calls, but instead
extend the existing ones
The cpu_has_feature() mechanism has an optimisation where at build
time we construct a mask of the CPU feature bits that will always be
true for the given .config, based on the platform/bitness/etc. that we
are building for.
That is incompatible with DT CPU features, where the set of CPU

So, could you explain how can this change cause a regression?

It is not currently possible to create the full number of possible
VCPUs (KVM_MAX_VCPUS) on Power9 with KVM-HV when the guest uses less
threads per core than it's core stride (or "VSMT mode"). This is
because the VCORE ID and XIVE offsets to grow beyond KVM_MAX_VCPUS
even though the VCPU ID is less
