[PATCH] hide guard page for stacks that grow upwards

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

 



pa-risc and ia64 have stacks that grow upwards. Don't
show the guard page on upward growing vma in /proc/$$/maps

This looks useful too ... but I can't see where the code is that
made vm_start be PAGE_SIZE lower to begin with. I'd expect to have
to make a matching change to make vm_end PAGE_SIZE higher for the
VM_GROWSUP areas.
