The latest kernel upstream. Yes, but using mmap, you can map the runtime->status page, and then copy the data through memcpy to overwrite the status->state data, or even more, which is incredible. this is debug log: ```` gef➤ c Continuing. Cannot remove breakpoints because program is no longer writable. Further execution is probably impossible.
