linux-next: Unable to write into a vma if it has been mapped without PROT_READ

[Andrey Wagin <avagin@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Everyone,

I found that now we can't write into a vma if it was mapped without PROT_READ:

mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) = 0x7f2ac7eb8000
--- SIGSEGV {si_signo=SIGSEGV, si_code=SEGV_ACCERR, si_addr=0x7f2ac7eb8000} ---
+++ killed by SIGSEGV (core dumped) +++
Segmentation fault
[root@linux-next-test ~]# cat test.c
#include <sys/mman.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main()
{
    int *p;

    p = mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
    p[0] = 1;

    return 0;
}
