[PATCH] Remove READ_IMPLIES_EXEC during restart

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

 



On s390, all tasks have READ_IMPLIES_EXEC set in current->personality,
which causes the restart process to map things like the stack and heap as
executable.  During the restart process, remove this bit and restore the
original personality afterwards.

This seems a little ugly, but I don't know that there's a better place for
it.
