Hi Shenghui, thanks for the patch.

However, your patch doesn't work in some situation, e.g.: when t mmapped
at highest addr (it is the most common situation), which makes t+3*ps
over boundary, so mmap will map to another addr near t+3*ps. So I
propose for the following increment fix:

 static void check_vma(void)
 {
        int status;
-       void *t, *u, *x, *y;
+       void *t, *u, *v, *x, *y;

-       t = mmap(NULL, 3*ps, PROT_WRITE, MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE, 0, 0);
+       v = mmap(NULL, ps, PROT_READ, MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE, 0, 0);
+       if (v == MAP_FAILED)
+               tst_brkm(TBROK|TERRNO, cleanup, "mmap");
+       t = mmap(v - 6*ps, 3*ps, PROT_WRITE, MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE,
0, 0);
        if (t == MAP_FAILED)
                tst_brkm(TBROK|TERRNO, cleanup, "mmap");
        memset(t, 1, ps);

A new addr v introduced before other mappings, used to locate the
highest addr. And in order not to be merged with other mappings, v is
mapped with READ-only prot.

result using your patch w/o my increment patch:

# ./vma01
parent: t = 0x7f82dd437000
child : u = 0x7f82dd434000
vma01       0  TINFO  :  s = 0x7f82dd437000, t = 0x7f82dd43a000
vma01       1  TBROK  :  unexpected VMA found.
vma01       2  TBROK  :  Remaining cases broken

result using your patch w/ my increment patch:

# ./vma01
parent: t = 0x7f418066f000
child : u = 0x7f4180672000
vma01       0  TINFO  :  s = 0x7f418066f000, t = 0x7f4180672000
vma01       0  TINFO  :  s = 0x7f4180672000, t = 0x7f4180675000
vma01       1  TPASS  :  two 3*ps VMAs found.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Caspar
