      [PATCH] Fix ppc64 max_pfn issue · 1172fbd0
      Anton Blanchard authored
      I noticed excessive time in the pid hash functions on a ppc64 box. It
      turns out the pid hash is being sized way too small, eg on a 16GB box:
      
      PID hash table entries: 16 (order 4: 256 bytes)
      
      The reason is that the pid hash init function uses max_pfn before it was
      setup on ppc64. With the following patch things are good again:
      
      PID hash table entries: 4096 (order 12: 65536 bytes)

      [PATCH] NX: allow architectures to select legacy mode dynamically · 2813e143
      David Mosberger authored
      On some platforms, you'll want to support READ_IMPLIES_EXEC differently
      depending on personality (e.g, native binary vs. x86 binary).
      
      This supports that (and makes the code more readable while at it) by
      replacing the old architecture-specific fixed LEGACY_BINARIES macro
      define with a architecture-specific "elf_read_implies_exec_binary()"
      helper function.
      
      For now, x86 is the only user, and sets the "read implies exec" bit for
      legacy apps.  ia64 and x86-64 are likely to want to do their own thing.
      
      Acked by Ingo.
