MTE provides a mode that asynchronously updates the TFSR_EL1 register when a tag check exception is detected. To take advantage of this mode the kernel has to verify the status of the register at: 1. Context switching 2. Return to user/EL0 (Not required in entry from EL0 since the kernel did not run) 3. Kernel entry from EL1 4. Kernel exit to EL1 If the register is non-zero a trace is reported. Add the required features for EL1 detection and reporting. Note: ITFSB bit is set in the SCTLR_EL1 register hence it guaranties that the indirect writes to TFSR_EL1 are synchronized at exception entry to EL1. On the context switch path the synchronization is guarantied by the dsb() in __switch_to(). The dsb(nsh) in mte_check_tfsr_exit() is provisional pending confirmation by the architects.

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.
