Subject: [02/17] guard page for stacks that grow upwards
Date: Fri, 22 Oct 2010 11:39:27 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101022184032.674627375@clark.site> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20101022184048.GA25391@kroah.com>

2.6.27-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Luck, Tony <tony.luck@intel.com>

commit 8ca3eb08097f6839b2206e2242db4179aee3cfb3 upstream.

pa-risc and ia64 have stacks that grow upwards. Check that
they do not run into other mappings. By making VM_GROWSUP
0x0 on architectures that do not ever use it, we can avoid
some unpleasant #ifdefs in check_stack_guard_page().
