--- Comment #216 from Don Lewis <truckman@FreeBSD.org> ---
LOL ...=20

Prior to the fix in r321899, the top page of user memory for amd64 executab=
les
was used by the shared page, the contents of which are controlled by the
kernel.  This page does contain the signal trampoline, which contains a SYS=
CALL
instruction, which made me very suspicious based on my experiments with
executing code in this page.  The SYSCALL instruction is located well away =
from
the top of the page, though.  I may try playing with this instruction if I =
ever
have the time.

After r321899, the shared page is moved lower and we don't allow the top pa=
ge
to be used at all, similar to Linux.  CloudABI64 got a similar fix.
