... back to this a week old thread about already dropped patch.
I am thinking about going back to the original idea of just simply
defining ARCH_HAS_RANDOMIZE_BRK and not caring for the ELF crap any more
for now. This way the patch is as small as possible, and doesn't interfere
with the ELF cross-arch craziness at all.
Here I posted such version of the patch:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/8/22/254 and here you asked me to put empty
stubs into elf.h, which turned out to be too headache for some archs:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/8/22/492
Does going back to the original ARCH_HAS_RANDOMIZE_BRK sound acceptable
now, before the ELF stuff gets completely rewritten one day?
Thanks,
