[PATCH 2/4] arm64: Reduce ELF_ET_DYN_BASE

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

 



Now that explicitly executed loaders are loaded in the mmap region,
position PIE binaries lower in the address space to avoid possible
collisions with mmap or stack regions. For 64-bit, align to 4GB to
allow runtimes to use the entire 32-bit address space for 32-bit
pointers.
