SubjectRe: Writable global section?


When using shared libraries, is there a ".section" into which
I can put a variable that's writable? I note that when programs
that use shared libraries start, the pages are mprotect(ed)
PROT_READ|PROT_EXEC, but sometimes I see PROT_WRITE on some
pages.

I'd like to rip out a memory-mapped semiphore and put it directly
in a shared library if possible.


Cheers,
Dick Johnson
