      [PATCH] ppc64: Improve mapping of vDSO · 547ee84c
      Benjamin Herrenschmidt 提交于
      This patch reworks the way the ppc64 is mapped in user memory by the kernel
      to make it more robust against possible collisions with executable
      segments.  Instead of just whacking a VMA at 1Mb, I now use
      get_unmapped_area() with a hint, and I moved the mapping of the vDSO to
      after the mapping of the various ELF segments and of the interpreter, so
      that conflicts get caught properly (it still has to be before
      create_elf_tables since the later will fill the AT_SYSINFO_EHDR with the
      proper address).
      
      While I was at it, I also changed the 32 and 64 bits vDSO's to link at
      their "natural" address of 1Mb instead of 0.  This is the address where
      they are normally mapped in absence of conflict.  By doing so, it should be
      possible to properly prelink one it's been verified to work on glibc.

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
