The patch titled get_unmapped_area handles MAP_FIXED on parisc has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is get_unmapped_area-handles-map_fixed-on-parisc.patch *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: get_unmapped_area handles MAP_FIXED on parisc From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Handle MAP_FIXED in parisc arch_get_unmapped_area(), just return the address. We might want to also check for possible cache aliasing issues now that we get called in that case (like ARM or MIPS), leave a comment for the maintainers to pick up.
