Subject: Execute in place
Date: Tue, 01 May 2007 17:55:29 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4637B751.1080907@cfl.rr.com> (raw)
I seem to remember seeing some patches go by at some point that allowed
one of the rom type embeded system filesystems to directly execute
binaries out of the original rom memory rather than copying them to ram
first, then executing from there. I was wondering if rootfs or tmpfs
support such execute in place today, or if binaries executed from there
have their code segments duplicated in ram?
