Hi,
is there a VA range in userspace which is always safe for mmap() with
fixed adr? (x86_64 mostly)
I.e. a VA range where mmap() or ld will never map memory.
I know I can try particular fixed adr with mmap() and check if the
mapping succeeds. However this is not what I want. I want mmap() to stay
clear of certain ranges and map memory there myself.
Regards
.....Volker
