Subject: [failures] fs-execc-call-arch_pick_mmap_layout-only-once.patch removed from -mm tree To: richard@xxxxxx,viro@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx,mm-commits@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx From: akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Mon, 06 Jan 2014 12:50:28 -0800 The patch titled Subject: fs/exec.c: call arch_pick_mmap_layout() only once has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was fs-execc-call-arch_pick_mmap_layout-only-once.patch This patch was dropped because it had testing failures ------------------------------------------------------ From: Richard Weinberger <richard@xxxxxx> Subject: fs/exec.c: call arch_pick_mmap_layout() only once Currently both setup_new_exec() and flush_old_exec() issue a call to arch_pick_mmap_layout(). As setup_new_exec() and flush_old_exec() are always called pairwise arch_pick_mmap_layout() is called twice. This patch removes one call from setup_new_exec() to have it only called once.
