-Subject: proc: clean up and fix /proc/<pid>/mem handling
-MIME-Version: 1.0
-Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
-Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

-From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
-
-commit e268337dfe26dfc7efd422a804dbb27977a3cccc upstream.
-
-Jüri Aedla reported that the /proc/<pid>/mem handling really isn't very
-robust, and it also doesn't match the permission checking of any of the
-other related files.
-
-This changes it to do the permission checks at open time, and instead of
-tracking the process, it tracks the VM at the time of the open. That
-simplifies the code a lot, but does mean that if you hold the file
-descriptor open over an execve(), you'll continue to read from the _old_
-VM.
-
-That is different from our previous behavior, but much simpler. If
-somebody actually finds a load where this matters, we'll need to revert
-this commit.
-
-I suspect that nobody will ever notice - because the process mapping
-addresses will also have changed as part of the execve. So you cannot
-actually usefully access the fd across a VM change simply because all
-the offsets for IO would have changed too.
