The MMU available in many systems running Linux can often provide R/O protection to the memory pages it handles. However, the MMU-based protection works efficiently only when said pages contain only data that will not need further modifications. Statically allocated variables can be segregated into a dedicated section, however this is not fit too well the case of dynamically allocated ones. Dynamic allocation does not provide, currently, means for grouping variables in memory pages that would contain exclusively data that can be made read only. The allocator here provided (pmalloc - protectable memory allocator) introduces the concept of pools of protectable memory. A module can request a pool and then refer any allocation request to the pool handler it has received. Once all the memory requested (over various iterations) is initialized, the pool can be protected. After this point, the pool can only be destroyed (it is up to the module to avoid any further references to the memory from the pool, after the destruction is invoked). The latter case is mainly meant for releasing memory, when a module is unloaded. A module can have as many pools as needed, for example to support the protection of data that is initialized in sufficiently distinct phases.
