The patch titled
     Subject: mm: ensure get_unmapped_area() returns higher address than mmap_min_addr
has been added to the -mm tree.  Its filename is
     mm-ensure-get_unmapped_area-returns-higher-address-than-mmap_min_addr.patch

This patch should soon appear at
    http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/mm-ensure-get_unmapped_area-returns-higher-address-than-mmap_min_addr.patch

From: Akira Takeuchi <takeuchi.akr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm: ensure get_unmapped_area() returns higher address than mmap_min_addr

This patch fixes the problem that get_unmapped_area() can return illegal
address and result in failing mmap(2) etc.

In case that the address higher than PAGE_SIZE is set to
/proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr, the address lower than mmap_min_addr can be
returned by get_unmapped_area(), even if you do not pass any virtual
address hint (i.e.  the second argument).

This is because the current get_unmapped_area() code does not take into
account mmap_min_addr.

This leads to two actual problems as follows:

1. mmap(2) can fail with EPERM on the process without CAP_SYS_RAWIO,
   although any illegal parameter is not passed.

2. The bottom-up search path after the top-down search might not work in
   arch_get_unmapped_area_topdown().

Note: The first and third chunk of my patch, which changes "len" check,
are for more precise check using mmap_min_addr, and not for solving the
above problem.

[How to reproduce]

	--- test.c -------------------------------------------------
	#include <stdio.h>
	#include <unistd.h>
	#include <sys/mman.h>
	#include <sys/errno.h>

	int main(int argc, char *argv[])
	{
		void *ret = NULL, *last_map;
		size_t pagesize = sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE);

		do {
			last_map = ret;
			ret = mmap(0, pagesize, PROT_NONE,
				MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
	//		printf("ret=%p\n", ret);
		} while (ret != MAP_FAILED);

		if (errno != ENOMEM) {
			printf("ERR: unexpected errno: %d (last map=%p)\n",
			errno, last_map);
		}

		return 0;
	}
	---------------------------------------------------------------

	$ gcc -m32 -o test test.c
	$ sudo sysctl -w vm.mmap_min_addr=65536
	vm.mmap_min_addr = 65536
	$ ./test  (run as non-priviledge user)
	ERR: unexpected errno: 1 (last map=0x10000)
