On x86, that is #define VM_STACK_FLAGS (VM_GROWSDOWN | VM_STACK_DEFAULT_FLAGS | VM_ACCOUNT) #define VM_STACK_DEFAULT_FLAGS VM_DATA_DEFAULT_FLAGS #define VM_DATA_DEFAULT_FLAGS \ (((current->personality & READ_IMPLIES_EXEC) ? VM_EXEC : 0 ) | \ VM_READ | VM_WRITE | VM_MAYREAD | VM_MAYWRITE | VM_MAYEXEC) so VM_STACK_FLAGS is depending on the value of current->personality which we don't know at build time. -- Mel Gorman Part-time Phd Student Linux Technology Center University of Limerick IBM Dublin Software Lab -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxx For more info on Linux MM, see: http://www.linux-mm.org/ .
