I was being overly paranoid in not updating the execobject.offset after performing the fallback copy where we set reloc.presumed_offset to -1. The thinking was to ensure that a subsequent NORELOC execbuf would be forced to process the invalid relocations. However this is overkill so long as we *only* update the execobject.offset following a successful update of the relocation value witin the batch. If we have to repeat the execbuf due to a later interruption, then we may skip the relocations on the second pass (honouring NORELOC) since the execobject.offset match the actual offsets (even though reloc.presumed_offset is garbage). Subsequent calls to execbuf with NORELOC should themselves ensure that the reloc.presumed_offset have been corrected in case of future migration. Reporting back the actual execobject.offset, even when reloc.presumed_offset is garbage, ensures that reuse of those objects use the latest information to avoid relocations. Fixes: |

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
