[PATCH] [44/66] x86_64: Change default setting for noexec32 to match i386 kernel

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

 



This means i386 processes compiled with a recent compiler will get 
non executable heap by default now. This is the same default
as a 32bit PAE kernel would use on a NX enabled CPU.
