+Subject: [PATCH 3.10-grsec] fs/binfmt_elf: fix memory map for PIE applications
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+arch/*/include/asm/elf.h comments say:
+ ELF_ET_DYN_BASE is the location that an ET_DYN program is loaded
+ if exec'ed. Typical use of this is to invoke "./ld.so someprog"
+ to test out a new version of the loader. We need to make sure
+ that it is out of the way of the program that it will "exec",
+ and that there is sufficient room for the brk.
+
+In case we have main application linked as PIE, this can cause
+problems as the main program itself is being loaded to this
+alternate address. And this allows limited heap size. While
+this is inevitable when exec'ing the interpreter directly,
+we should do better for PIE applications.
+
+This fixes the loader to detect PIE application by checking if
+elf_interpreter is requested. This images are loaded to beginning
+of the address space instead of the specially crafted place for elf
+interpreter. This allows full heap address space for PIE applications
+and fixes random "out of memory" errors.
