powerpc: Randomise mmap start address
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Randomise mmap start address - 8MB on 32bit and 1GB on 64bit tasks.
Until ppc32 uses the mmap.c functionality, this is ppc64 specific.

Before:

# ./test & cat /proc/${!}/maps|tail -2|head -1
f75fe000-f7fff000 rw-p f75fe000 00:00 0
f75fe000-f7fff000 rw-p f75fe000 00:00 0
f75fe000-f7fff000 rw-p f75fe000 00:00 0
f75fe000-f7fff000 rw-p f75fe000 00:00 0
f75fe000-f7fff000 rw-p f75fe000 00:00 0

After:
# ./test & cat /proc/${!}/maps|tail -2|head -1
f718b000-f7b8c000 rw-p f718b000 00:00 0
f7551000-f7f52000 rw-p f7551000 00:00 0
f6ee7000-f78e8000 rw-p f6ee7000 00:00 0
f74d4000-f7ed5000 rw-p f74d4000 00:00 0
f6e9d000-f789e000 rw-p f6e9d000 00:00 0

Similar for 64bit, but with 1GB of scatter:
# ./test & cat /proc/${!}/maps|tail -2|head -1
fffb97b5000-fffb97b6000 rw-p fffb97b5000 00:00 0
fffce9a3000-fffce9a4000 rw-p fffce9a3000 00:00 0
fffeaaf2000-fffeaaf3000 rw-p fffeaaf2000 00:00 0
fffd88ac000-fffd88ad000 rw-p fffd88ac000 00:00 0
fffbc62e000-fffbc62f000 rw-p fffbc62e000 00:00 0
