The patch titled Subject: arm64: move COMPAT_ELF_ET_DYN_BASE lower in the address space has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was arm64-move-compat_elf_et_dyn_base-lower-in-the-address-space.patch This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged ------------------------------------------------------ From: Rik van Riel <riel@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: arm64: move COMPAT_ELF_ET_DYN_BASE lower in the address space When setting up mmap_base, we take care to start the mmap base below the maximum extent to which the stack will grow. However, we take no such precautions with PIE binaries, which are placed at 2/3 of TASK_SIZE plus a random offset. As a result, 32 bit PIE binaries can end up smack in the middle of where the stack (which is randomized down) is supposed to go. That problem can be avoided by putting the 32 bit ELF_ET_DYN_BASE at 256MB, which is a value linux-hardened and grsecurity have used for a long time now without any known (to me) bug reports.
