[PATCH v5 3/3] powerpc/mm: Tracking vDSO remap

Laurent Dufour ldufour at linux.vnet.ibm.com
Thu Apr 16 00:16:58 AEST 2015


Some processes (CRIU) are moving the vDSO area using the mremap system
call. As a consequence the kernel reference to the vDSO base address is
no more valid and the signal return frame built once the vDSO has been
moved is not pointing to the new sigreturn address.

This patch handles vDSO remapping and unmapping.
