From 59e4c3a2fe9cb1681bb2cff508ff79466f7585ba Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andreas Schwab Date: Thu, 16 Apr 2009 06:22:01 +0000 Subject: powerpc/32: Don't clobber personality flags on exec Now that ppc32 implements address randomization it also wants to inherit personality flags like ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE across exec, for things like `setarch ppc -R' to work. But the ppc32 version of SET_PERSONALITY forcefully sets PER_LINUX, clearing all personality flags. So be careful about preserving the flags.
