Subject: Memory zeroed when made available to user process
Date: Wed, 27 Jun 2018 09:34:51 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <71d13d76-4591-9206-ebbb-5e9599f10c7c@gmail.com> (raw)
Is there a way for a user process to mark memory as 'sensitive' or
'non-sensitive' when it is allocated? That could allow it not to have
to be zeroed before being allocated to another process.
