116config SECURITY_DEFAULT_MMAP_MIN_ADDR
117 int "Low address space to protect from user allocation"
118 depends on SECURITY
119 default 0
120 help
121 This is the portion of low virtual memory which should be protected
122 from userspace allocation. Keeping a user from writing to low pages
123 can help reduce the impact of kernel NULL pointer bugs.
124
125 For most ia64, ppc64 and x86 users with lots of address space
126 a value of 65536 is reasonable and should cause no problems.
127 On arm and other archs it should not be higher than 32768.
128 Programs which use vm86 functionality would either need additional
129 permissions from either the LSM or the capabilities module or have
130 this protection disabled.
131
132 This value can be changed after boot using the
133 /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr tunable.
