I try to better explain my goal. I'm developing a LKM to monitor threads sharing the same memory descriptor. I set this descriptor (or parts of it) as not writable and then catch the page fault exception caused by one (or more) threads when trying to write on it. The problem is that I've to catch only page fault exception caused by accesses to global variable and not by accesses to local variables of each thread. To do this, I've to know precisely what are the vmas of the shared memory descriptor in which are stored the local data of threads. I've thought that these vmas are the ones that begin with 'b' character but I'm not really sure. I hope my explanation is clear. Thanks. Vincenzo Mallozzi. ___________________________________ Yahoo!
