Print a rate-limited warning when a user-space program attempts to execute any of the instructions that UMIP protects (i.e., SGDT, SIDT, SLDT, STR and SMSW). This is useful, because when CONFIG_X86_INTEL_UMIP=y is selected and supported by the hardware, user space programs that try to execute such instructions will receive a SIGSEGV signal that they might not expect. In the specific cases for which emulation is provided (instructions SGDT, SIDT and SMSW in protected and virtual-8086 modes), no signal is generated. However, a warning is helpful to encourage updates in such programs to avoid the use of such instructions. Warnings are printed via a customized printk() function that also provides information about the program that attempted to use the affected instructions. Utility macros are defined to wrap umip_printk() for the error and warning kernel log levels. While here, replace an existing call to the generic rate-limited pr_err() with the new umip_pr_err().

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
