| |
Hi, I statically linked my program and I tried to mmap a total of 2 GB - 4096 bytes.
Now when I call mmap with a start address of 0x40000000 and used the MAP_FIXED flag, it works and Im able to use all my virtual memory correctly. But with out the MAP_FIXED flag, mmap returns -1.
Why is this?
I thought at the very least not using MAP_FIXED should find any suitable address, even 0x40000000 like I specified.
Thanks!
