Indeed. Unlike fork/clone, execve is only magical insofar as it does magical things to task_struct and it enters in the 64-bit native case through a nasty asm path. The former has no effect on the entry code (except most likely blocking opportunistic sysret because we're a bit silly and it might break ABI to change that), and the latter barely matters for this purpose. In any event, I'm planning on getting rid of the asm stub for 4.5 if I can get the code written and tested in time. --Andy -- Andy Lutomirski AMA Capital Management, LLC -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
