Subject: [PATCH] uml: fix vsyscall brokenness
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a502a3593c7aa2aff99a61ed71e7cb828ee4da8b;p=linux-beck.git

[PATCH] uml: fix vsyscall brokenness

The #if/#ifdef cleanup exposed a bug in UML's ELF header processing.  With
this bug fixed, UML recognizes the vsyscall info coming from the host.  On
FC4, there is a vsyscall page low in the address space, which UML doesn't
provide.  This causes an infinite page fault loop and a hang on boot.

This patch works around that by making this look like a no-vsyscall system.
