[PATCH] NOMMU: make SYSV SHM nattch work correctly
Make the SYSV SHM nattch counter work correctly by forcing multiple VMAs to be produced to represent MAP_SHARED segments, even if they overlap exactly. Using this test program: http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/doshm.c Run as: doshm sysv I can see nattch going from one before the patch: # /doshm sysv Command: sysv shmid: 65536 memory: 0xc3700000 c0b00000-c0b04000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 c0bb0000-c0bba788 r-xs 00000000 00:0b 14582157 /lib/ld-uClibc-0.9.28.so c3180000-c31dede4 r-xs 00000000 00:0b 14582179 /lib/libuClibc-0.9.28.so c3520000-c352278c rw-p 00000000 00:0b 13763417 /doshm c3584000-c35865e8 r-xs 00000000 00:0b 13763417 /doshm c3588000-c358aa00 rw-p 00008000 00:0b 14582157 /lib/ld-uClibc-0.9.28.so c3590000-c359b6c0 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 c3620000-c3640000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 c3700000-c37fa000 rw-S 00000000 00:06 1411 /SYSV00000000 (deleted) c3700000-c37fa000 rw-S 00000000 00:06 1411 /SYSV00000000 (deleted) nattch 1 To two after the patch: # /doshm sysv Command: sysv shmid: 0 memory: 0xc3700000 c0bb0000-c0bba788 r-xs 00000000 00:0b 14582157 /lib/ld-uClibc-0.9.28.so c3180000-c31dede4 r-xs 00000000 00:0b 14582179 /lib/libuClibc-0.9.28.so c3320000-c3340000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0 c3530000-c35325e8 r-xs 00000000 00:0b 13763417 /doshm c3534000-c353678c rw-p 00000000 00:0b 13763417 /doshm c3538000-c353aa00 rw-p 00008000 00:0b 14582157 /lib/ld-uClibc-0.9.28.so c3590000-c359b6c0 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 c35a4000-c35a8000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 c3700000-c37fa000 rw-S 00000000 00:06 1369 /SYSV00000000 (deleted) c3700000-c37fa000 rw-S 00000000 00:06 1369 /SYSV00000000 (deleted) nattch 2 That's +1 to nattch for each shmat() made.
