Yeah, so I had a look, and the ABI principle of using the mmap() address hint to trigger 57-bit address space allocations still looks mostly good to me, but please split up this patch: Subject: [PATCHv7 14/14] x86/mm: Allow to have userspace mappings above 47-bits arch/x86/include/asm/elf.h | 4 ++-- arch/x86/include/asm/mpx.h | 9 +++++++++ arch/x86/include/asm/processor.h | 12 +++++++++--- arch/x86/kernel/sys_x86_64.c | 30 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++---- arch/x86/mm/hugetlbpage.c | 27 +++++++++++++++++++++++---- arch/x86/mm/mmap.c | 6 +++--- arch/x86/mm/mpx.c | 33 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- 7 files changed, 104 insertions(+), 17 deletions(-) One patch should add the MPX quirk, another should add all the TASK_SIZE variations, without actually changing the logic, etc. - while the final patch adds the larger task size. Please try to split it into as many patches as possible - I'd say 4-5 look ideal. All of this changes existing code paths and if things break we'd like some small patch to be bisected to. The finer grained structure also makes review easier. Also, please rename the tasksize_*() functions to task_size_ (in yet another patch) - it's absolutely silly that we have 'TASK_SIZE' in uppercase but 'tasksize' in lowercase ... Thanks, Ingo
