[ Upstream commit50b7d85680] ramfs needs to check that pages are both physically contiguous and contiguous in the file. If the page cache happens to have, eg, page A for index 0 of the file, no page for index 1, and page A+1 for index 2, then an mmap of the first two pages of the file will succeed when it should fail.

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.
