The trouble IME with this idea is that in practice you're linking with glibc, which means glibc is managing (and using) the address space, not the JIT. So MAP_FIXED is pretty awkward to use. thanks -- PMM _______________________________________________ linaro-dev mailing list linaro-dev@lists.linaro.org https://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-dev
