Hello All, I found the following segment in all the process's on IA64 linux kernel. 60000fff80000000-60000fff80004000 rw-p 0000000000000000 00:00 0 (just above the stack). Was wondering what excatly is there in this segment? Does it have any information about the file descriptors /open file table ? I have a code which tries to override this segment but once I override this the program gets corrupted. Also why IPF kernel differs from other systems where the mmap space is below &_etext where as on other systems its above &_end. ?? Looking forward to hear from you. Best, Vamsi - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-ia64" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
