    s390/vdso: avoid 64-bit vdso mapping for compat tasks · d1befa65
    Vasily Gorbik authored
    vdso_fault used is_compat_task function (on s390 it tests "current"
    thread_info flags) to distinguish compat tasks and map 31-bit vdso
    pages. But "current" task might not correspond to mm context.
    
    When 31-bit compat inferior is executed under gdb, gdb does
    PTRACE_PEEKTEXT on vdso page, causing vdso_fault with "current" being
    64-bit gdb process. So, 31-bit inferior ends up with 64-bit vdso mapped.
    
    To avoid this problem a new compat_mm flag has been introduced into
    mm context. This flag is used in vdso_fault and vdso_mremap instead
    of is_compat_task.
