[PATCH v2] arm64: compat: Reduce address limit

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Currently, compat tasks running on arm64 can allocate memory up to
TASK_SIZE_32 (UL(0x100000000)).

This means that mmap() allocations, if we treat them as returning an
array, are not compliant with the sections 6.5.8 of the C standard
(C99) which states that: "If the expression P points to an element of
an array object and the expression Q points to the last element of the
same array object, the pointer expression Q+1 compares greater than P".

Redefine TASK_SIZE_32 to address the issue.
