| 9833.1 | sbrk? | CADSYS::BOGDANOV |  | Thu May 15 1997 10:07 | 2 | 
|  | How about just using 'sbrk' to reserve memory starting at a currently available
lower virtual address boundary?

|  | Or, how about using mmap(2) and create an MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_VARIABLE|MAP_PRIVATE
region.  If you don't specify the starting address, the OS will place the region
for you.

|  |     If it's any use to you, the Assembly Language Programmer's Guide has a
    memory map diagram showing which address regions aree used for what.
    
    Look around section 6.5    Memory Allocation
    
    Hope this helps

|  |     There's an example of how to use the Mach vm_region call (undocumented
    and unsupported, I might add) in here somewhere. Could be helpful
    depending on what the real goal of all this is....
