Subject: problem with gate_vma flags?
Date: Thu, 08 Dec 2005 14:36:14 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4398993E.9010200@nortel.com> (raw)


When viewing /proc/<pid>/maps on i386, the final page shows up as :

ffffe000-fffff000 ---p 00000000 00:00 0

If I'm reading the code correctly, this is the address range controlled 
by gate_vma.

The permissions are marked as nothing because when this vma is created 
"vm_flags" is set to 0.  However, shouldn't it be at least VM_READ and 
possibly also VM_EXEC?

Chris
