Linux kernel source tree
Stefan reported a test case fail in libc. The test runs with
randomize_va_space set to zero, i.e. disabled randomization. Additionally,
it runs the program with the dynamic loader. Looking at the failure showed
that the heap was placed right before some pages mapped from the binary.
This made memory allocation fail after a few allocations.
Normally, when address randomization is switched off and the binary is
loaded from the dynamic loader, the kernel places the binary below the
128MB top gap. So the address map would look like this:
3fff7fd1000-3fff7fd2000 r--p 00000000 5e:01 1447115 /lib/ld64.so.1
3fff7fd2000-3fff7ff2000 r-xp 00001000 5e:01 1447115 /lib/ld64.so.1
3fff7ff2000-3fff7ffc000 r--p 00021000 5e:01 1447115 /lib/ld64.so.1
3fff7ffc000-3fff7ffe000 r--p 0002a000 5e:01 1447115 /lib/ld64.so.1
3fff7ffe000-3fff8000000 rw-p 0002c000 5e:01 1447115 /lib/ld64.so.1
3fff8000000-3fff8021000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [heap]
3fffffda000-3ffffffb000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 [stack]
3ffffffc000-3ffffffe000 r--p 00000000 00:00 0 [vvar]
3ffffffe000-40000000000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso]

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
