This includes remapping the vDSO to the place it has at checkpoint time. However some architectures like powerpc are keeping a reference to the vDSO base address to build the signal return stack frame by calling the vDSO sigreturn service. So once the vDSO has been moved, this reference is no more valid and the signal frame built later are not usable. This patch serie is introducing a new mm hook 'arch_remap' which is called when mremap is done and the mm lock still hold. The next patch is adding the vDSO remap and unmap tracking to the powerpc architecture. Resending - rebased on 4.0.0 Changes in v3: -------------- - Fixed grammatical error in a comment of the second patch. Thanks again, Ingo. Changes in v2: -------------- - Following the Ingo Molnar's advice, enabling the call to arch_remap through the __HAVE_ARCH_REMAP macro. This reduces considerably the first patch.
