2010-01-28x86: Use helpers for rlimitsJiri Slaby1-2/+2
Make sure compiler won't do weird things with limits. Fetching them twice may return 2 different values after writable limits are implemented. We can either use rlimit helpers added in 3e10e716abf3c71bdb5d86b8f507f9e72236c9cd or ACCESS_ONCE if not applicable; this patch uses the helpers.

2009-09-11x86: Increase MIN_GAP to include randomized stackMichal Hocko1-2/+15
Currently we are not including randomized stack size when calculating mmap_base address in arch_pick_mmap_layout for topdown case. This might cause that mmap_base starts in the stack reserved area because stack is randomized by 1GB for 64b (8MB for 32b) and the minimum gap is 128MB. If the stack really grows down to mmap_base then we can get silent mmap region overwrite by the stack values. Let's include maximum stack randomization size into MIN_GAP which is used as the low bound for the gap in mmap.

2008-01-30x86: unify mmap_{32|64}.cHarvey Harrison1-0/+123
mmap_is_ia32 always true for X86_32, or while emulating IA32 on X86_64 Randomization not supported on X86_32 in legacy layout. Both layouts allow randomization on X86_64.
