The patch titled Subject: x86/mmap: properly account for stack randomization in mmap_base has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was x86-mmap-properly-account-for-stack-randomization-in-mmap_base.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Rik van Riel <riel@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: x86/mmap: properly account for stack randomization in mmap_base When RLIMIT_STACK is, for example, 256MB, the current code results in a gap between the top of the task and mmap_base of 256MB, failing to take into account the amount by which the stack address was randomized. In other words, the stack gets less than RLIMIT_STACK space. Ensure that the gap between the stack and mmap_base always takes stack randomization and the stack guard gap into account.
