Subject: Useless stack randomization patch
Date: Wed, 26 Sep 2007 16:10:14 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <46FA6846.2080704@gmail.com> (raw)

Ralf,

We started stack inside page randomization through commit
941091024ef0f2f7e09eb81201d293ac18833cc8 but it currently does nothing
usefull because ELF_PLATFORM is not defined on MIPS (see
fs/binfm_elf.c, create_elf_tables() for details).

I tried several times to get information on lkml about that dependency
but unfortunately I got no answer.

I'm not sure how ELF_PLATFORM is used by ld.so and I don't think it's
a good idea to define it just for enabling stack randomization.

What do you think ?

thanks
		Franck
