[PATCHv2 0/5] Fix compatible mmap() return pointer over 4Gb

From: Dmitry Safonov
Date: Mon Jan 16 2017 - 07:36:45 EST


Changes since v1:
- Recalculate mmap_base instead of using max possible virtual address
for compat/native syscall. That will make policy for allocation the
same in 32-bit binaries and in 32-bit syscalls in 64-bit binaries.
I need this because sys_mmap() in restored 32-bit process shouldn't
hit the stack area.
- Fixed mmap() with MAP_32BIT flag in the same usecases
- used in_compat_syscall() helper rather TS_COMPAT check (Andy noticed)
- introduced find_top() helper as suggested by Andy to simplify code
- fixed test error-handeling: it checked the result of sys_mmap() with
MMAP_FAILED, which is not correct, as it calls raw syscall - now
checks return value to be aligned to PAGE_SIZE.

Description from v1 [2]:

A fix for bug in mmap() that I referenced in [1].
Also selftest for it.

I would like to mark the fix as for stable v4.9 kernel if it'll
be accepted, as I try to support compatible 32-bit C/R
after v4.9 and working compatible mmap() is really wanted there.
