COW userspace memory mapping question

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

first let me apologize if I've picked a wrong address.

Question: Is it possible to create a copy-on-write copy
          of a MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS memory mapping
          in the user space? Effectively a snapshot of
          memory region.

          I understand that clone() optionally does this
          on much larger scale, but that's not really it.

Best regards,
    Jan Dvorak
