This seems to change the condition from

vma->vm_start >= vma->vm_mm->start_brk && vma->vm_end <= vma->vm_mm->brk

to

vma->vm_start <= vma->vm_mm->brk && vma->vm_end >= vma->vm_mm->start_brk

(or AND arguments swapped)

vma->vm_end >= vma->vm_mm->start_brk && vma->vm_start <= vma->vm_mm->brk

Is this intended?

The new condition is to check whether there is intersection between
[startbrk,brk] and [vm_start,vm_end], it contains orignal check, so
I think it is ok, but for selinux check, I am not sure if there is
some other problem.


rc = avc_has_perm(sid, sid, SECCLASS_PROCESS,
PROCESS__EXECHEAP, NULL);
