commit 8f89c007b6dec16a1793cb88de88fcc02117bbbc upstream. shmat()'s SHM_REMAP option forbids passing a nil address for; this is in fact the very first thing we check for. Andrea reported that for SHM_RND|SHM_REMAP cases we can end up bypassing the initial addr check, but we need to check again if the address was rounded down to nil. As of this patch, such cases will return -EINVAL.

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.
