Hi, This patch description (and a few others with the same sentence) is a little confusing to me: > Position Independent Executable (PIE) support will allow to extend the > KASLR randomization range 0xffffffff80000000. Is there a word missing after "range"? May "below"? As is, it seems to imply "range by 0xffffffff80000000." thanks. > > Signed-off-by: Thomas Garnier <[email protected]> > --- > arch/x86/Makefile | 4 + > arch/x86/include/asm/module.h | 11 ++ > arch/x86/include/asm/sections.h | 4 + > arch/x86/kernel/module.c | 181 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- > arch/x86/kernel/module.lds | 3 + > 5 files changed, 198 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) > create mode 100644 arch/x86/kernel/module.lds -- ~Randy
