Subject: mquery call and page faults
Date: Wed, 14 Jul 1999 13:23:17 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <378CF1B5.4EBCCC5D@watchguard.com> (raw)
Hello -
I scanned the docs and code for a counterpart to the mprotect call: I
would like some way to query the vm_flags for a page (or set of pages).
It would be great if it was possible to check the page-flag values as
well (locked, dirty, etc), tho this is less important.
Finally, is there an architecture-independent method for determining the
type of page fault? The only thing I've found was in the do_page_fault
call, but it is processor-dependent.
I would be happy to implement these features if they do not already
exist and if noone else is working on them. Any suggestions are welcome.
thanks!
