From 22208ac586f2e456c49e927b90ded50e923b6aee Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tony Luck Date: Fri, 12 Feb 2010 08:17:58 -0800 Subject: [IA64] preserve personality flag bits across exec In its ia64 defines SET_PERSONALITY in a way that unconditionally sets the personality of the current process to PER_LINUX, losing any flag bits from the upper 3 bytes of current->personality. This is wrong. Those bits are intended to be inherited across exec (other code takes care of ensuring that security sensitive bits like ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE are not passed to unsuspecting setuid/setgid applications).
