Description Ulrich Drepper 2006-10-18 09:04:27 UTC
Description of problem:
x86-64 xen kernels (I haven't checked non-xen kernels, I guess they have the
same problem) are missing the [vdso] annotation in /proc/self/maps.  It should
be present to match what native x86 kernels do.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.6.18-1.2798.fc6

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.compile as 32-bit binary:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main(void)
{
  char buf[100];
  sprintf(buf, "cat /proc/%d/maps", getpid());
  system(buf);
  return 0;
}

2.run
3.
  
Actual results:
[...]
ffffe000-fffff000 r-xp ffffe000 00:00 0 

Expected results:

[...]
ffffe000-fffff000 r-xp ffffe000 00:00 0        [vdso]

native kernels seem to work. I don't have a xen kernel handy, but is this still
reproducable ?


Comment 2 Ulrich Drepper 2007-04-23 23:25:43 UTC
Seems to work for some time.  I'm running 2.6.19-1.2898.2.3.fc7xen in a DomU and
it works.
