The patch titled Subject: exec: introduce finalize_exec() before start_thread() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was exec-introduce-finalize_exec-before-start_thread.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Kees Cook <keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: exec: introduce finalize_exec() before start_thread() Provide a final callback into fs/exec.c before start_thread() takes over, to handle any last-minute changes, like the coming restoration of the stack limit.
