This fixes MAP_SHARED|MAP_ANONYMOUS spotted by Jens and Martin, plus it avoids vmware to crash (but it only warns about the missing VM_RESERVED bitflag). URL: http://www.us.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/andrea/kernels/v2.6/2.6.5-rc2-aa1.gz http://www.us.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/andrea/kernels/v2.6/2.6.5-rc2-aa1/ Changelog diff between 2.6.5-rc1-aa3 and 2.6.5-rc2-aa1: Binary files 2.6.5-rc1-aa3/anon_vma.gz and 2.6.5-rc2-aa1/anon_vma.gz differ Fixed silly bug in mmap(MAP_SHARED|MAP_ANONYMOUS) and converted a BUG_ON to a WARN_ON if some device driver passes non-pageable pages to the VM via ->nopage. VM_RESERVED it's not required with current VM, so even if the WARN_ON triggers the machine remains completely stable. Only in 2.6.5-rc1-aa3: linus.patch.gz Updated to 2.6.5-rc2 so not needed anymore. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
