From 86f04735ac2088d5c069c3d1712212ec7428c562 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Helge Deller Date: Sun, 25 Dec 2022 09:23:19 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] linux-user: Fix brk() to release pages The current brk() implementation does not de-allocate pages if a lower address is given compared to earlier brk() calls. But according to the manpage, brk() shall deallocate memory in this case and currently it breaks a real-world application, specifically building the debian gcl package in qemu-user. Fix this issue by reworking the qemu brk() implementation. Tested with the C-code testcase included in qemu commit 4d1de87c750, and by building debian package of gcl in a hppa-linux guest on a x86-64 host.
