Subject: arch: personality independent stack top
From: Peter Zijlstra <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
This patch-set aims at removing the current limit on argv+env space aka.
MAX_ARG_PAGES.
The new mm is created before the binfmt code runs, the stack is placed at the
highest address supported by that architecture.
The argv+env data is then copied from the old mm into the new mm (which is
inactive at that time - this introduces some cache coherency issues).
Then we run the binfmt code, which will compute the final stack address. The
existing stack will be moved downwards (or upwards on PA-RISC) to the desired
place.
This 'trick' heavily relies on the MMU, so for no-MMU archs we stay with the
old approach.
This patch:
New arch macro STACK_TOP_MAX it gives the larges valid stack address for the
architecture in question.
It differs from STACK_TOP in that it will not distinguish between
personalities but will always return the largest possible address.
This is used to create the initial stack on execve, which we will move down to
the proper location once the binfmt code has figured out where that is.
