hugetlbfs: ensure generic_hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() returns higher address than mmap_min_addr
generic_hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() was returning an address less than mmap_min_addr if the mmap argument addr, after alignment, was less than mmap_min_addr, causing mmap to fail. This is because current generic_hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() code does not take into account mmap_min_addr. This patch ensures that generic_hugetlb_get_unmapped_area() always returns an address that is greater than mmap_min_addr. Additionally, similar to generic_get_unmapped_area(), vm_end_gap() checks are included to maintain stack gap. How to reproduce ================ #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <sys/mman.h> #include <unistd.h> #define HUGEPAGE_SIZE (16 * 1024 * 1024) int main() { void *addr = mmap((void *)-1, HUGEPAGE_SIZE, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED | MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_HUGETLB, -1, 0); if (addr == MAP_FAILED) { perror("mmap"); exi...
