Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] x86: fix brk area initialization
Date: Thu, 23 Jun 2022 11:46:05 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220623094608.7294-1-jgross@suse.com> (raw)

The brk area needs to be zeroed initially, like the .bss section.
At the same time its memory should be covered by the ELF program
headers.

Juergen Gross (3):
  x86/xen: use clear_bss() for Xen PV guests
  x86: fix setup of brk area
  x86: fix .brk attribute in linker script
