From ef9e78fd2753213ea01d77f7a76a9cb6ad0f50a7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: HATAYAMA Daisuke Date: Wed, 3 Jul 2013 15:02:21 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] vmcore: allow user process to remap ELF note segment buffer Now ELF note segment has been copied in the buffer on vmalloc memory. To allow user process to remap the ELF note segment buffer with remap_vmalloc_page, the corresponding VM area object has to have VM_USERMAP flag set.
