[Qemu-devel] [PATCH repost 2/4] oslib: allocate PROT_NONE pages on top of RAM

[Michael S. Tsirkin]

This inserts a read and write protected page between RAM and QEMU
memory. This makes it harder to exploit QEMU bugs resulting from buffer
overflows in devices using variants of cpu_physical_memory_map,
dma_memory_map etc.
