The patch titled
binfmt_flat: don't check for EMFILE
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename is
binfmt_flat-dont-check-for-emfile.patch
This patch was probably dropped from -mm because
it has now been merged into a subsystem tree or
into Linus's tree, or because it was folded into
its parent patch in the -mm tree.
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: binfmt_flat: don't check for EMFILE
From: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxx>
Bernd Schmidt points out that binfmt_flat is now leaving the exec file open
while the application runs. This offsets all the application's fd numbers.
We should have closed the file within exec(), not at exit()-time.
But there doesn't seem to be a lot of point in doing all this just to avoid
going over RLIMIT_NOFILE by one fd for a few microseconds. So take the EMFILE
checking out again. This will cause binfmt_flat to again fail LTP's
exec-should-return-EMFILE-when-fdtable-is-full test. That test appears to be
wrong anyway - Open Group specs say nothing about exec() returning EMFILE.
