Subject: [PATCH 1/3] x86/mmap: properly account for stack randomization in mmap_base
Date: Thu, 22 Jun 2017 16:00:31 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170622200033.25714-2-riel@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170622200033.25714-1-riel@redhat.com>

From: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com>

When RLIMIT_STACK is, for example, 256MB, the current code results in
a gap between the top of the task and mmap_base of 256MB, failing to
take into account the amount by which the stack address was randomized.
In other words, the stack gets less than RLIMIT_STACK space.

Ensure that the gap between the stack and mmap_base always takes stack
randomization and the stack guard gap into account.
