Maybe you managed to take a fault against the symbol area between the _install_special_mapping() and the remap_pfn_range() call, but mmap_sem should prevent that. Or the remap_pfn_range() call never happened. Should map_vdso() be running _install_special_mapping() at all if image->sym_vvar_page==NULL? -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
