We stopped supporting MAP_DENYWRITE for user space applications a while ago because of the chance for DoS. The last renaming user is binfmt binary loading during exec and legacy library loading via uselib(). With this change, MAP_DENYWRITE is effectively ignored throughout the kernel. Although the net change is small, I think the cleanup in mmap() is quite nice. There are some (minor) user-visible changes with this series, that's why I am flagging this as RFC and cc-ing linux-api: 1. We no longer deny write access to shared libaries loaded via legacy uselib(); this behavior matches modern user space e.g., via dlopen(). 2. We no longer deny write access to the elf interpreter after exec completed, treating it just like shared libraries (which it often is). 3. We always deny write access to the file linked via /proc/pid/exe: sys_prctl(PR_SET_MM_EXE_FILE) will fail if write access to the file cannot be denied, and write access to the file will remain denied until the link is effectivel gone (exec, termination, PR_SET_MM_EXE_FILE) -- just as if exec'ing the file. I was wondering if we really care about permanently disabling write access to the executable, or if it would be good enough to just disable write access while loading the new executable during exec; but I don't know the history of that -- and it somewhat makes sense to deny write access at least to the main executable. With modern user space -- dlopen() -- we can effectively modify the content of shared libraries while being used. I'm not 100% sure if the race documented in patch #3 applies (forking while another thread is doing a PR_SET_MM_EXE_FILE), but I assume this is possible.
