PAGE_SIZE limit is currently used by sched, perf, > bpf, and clone3 and in a few other places. For a primitive that can be safely used with any size (OK, any within the usual 2Gb limit)? Why push the random policy into the place where it doesn't belong? Seriously, what's the point? If they want to have a large chunk of userland memory zeroed or checked for non-zeroes - why would that be a problem? _______________________________________________ Containers mailing list Containers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/containers
