Subject: [PULL 08/12] linux-user: Implement finer grained madivse() syscall
Date: Tue, 26 May 2026 22:02:03 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260526200207.79738-9-deller@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260526200207.79738-1-deller@kernel.org>

From: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

Although most madvise() values are hints, some are important and are
checked by userspace, especially by security-relevant applications like
BoringSLL.  So, return -EINVAL for those functions which we don't emulate.

Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>
