This patch reduces the minimum required hot patching size from 14 to 6 on x86_64 if the distance from a hot-patch target function to the trampoline memory is within 2GB.
This patch also allocates trampoline memory under 2GB by using mmap() with MAP_32BIT when mysqld resides under 2GB.
This will rescue the following error in #72 (comment)https://github.com/mcafee/mysql-audit/issues/72#issuecomment-33572747

140129 14:04:54 [ERROR] Audit Plugin: unable to disassemble at address: 0x0x7f0fc6f59aaa. Found relative addressing for instruction: [jnz 0x7f0fc6f59ab5]. Aborting.
Relative addressing was found at 10 bytes after the begging of the function. It failed because 10 is smaller than the minimum hot patching size 14. But it will not fail if the size becomes 6.

This patch reduces the minimum required hot patching size from 14 to 6 on x86_64 if the distance from a hot-patch target function to the trampoline memory is within 2GB. (The exact condition is:
(trampoline_memory_address - (target_function_address + 6)) between INT32_MIN and INT32_MAX
)This patch also allocates trampoline memory under 2GB by using mmap() with MAP_32BIT when mysqld resides under 2GB.
This will rescue the following error in https://github.com/mcafee/mysql-audit/issues/72#issuecomment-33572747
Relative addressing was found at 10 bytes after the beginning of the function. It failed because 10 is smaller than the minimum hot patching size 14. But it will not fail if the size becomes 6.
0x7f0fa44e5000 - (0x7f0fc6f59aa0 + 6) = -581388966
, which is betweenINT32_MIN
andINT32_MAX
