We've tested the following architectures: i386, x86_64, um/i386, parisc, and frv. These are representative of the various scenarios which this patch addresses, but other architecture teams should try it out to make sure there aren't any unexpected gotchas.
Doesn't build on ia64: complaints from arch/ia64/ia32/binfmt_elf.c (which #includes ../../../fs/binfmt_elf.c) ... arch/ia64/ia32/binfmt_elf32.c: In function `ia32_setup_arg_pages': arch/ia64/ia32/binfmt_elf32.c:206: error: `MAX_ARG_PAGES' undeclared (first use in this function) arch/ia64/ia32/binfmt_elf32.c:206: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once arch/ia64/ia32/binfmt_elf32.c:206: error: for each function it appears in.) arch/ia64/ia32/binfmt_elf32.c:240: error: structure has no member named `page' arch/ia64/ia32/binfmt_elf32.c:242: error: structure has no member named `page' arch/ia64/ia32/binfmt_elf32.c:243: warning: implicit declaration of function `install_arg_page' make[1]: *** [arch/ia64/ia32/binfmt_elf32.o] Error 1 Turning off CONFIG_IA32-SUPPORT, the kernel built, but oops'd during boot. My serial connection to my test machine is currently broken, so I didn't get a capture of the stack trace, sorry. -Tony
