Memory write protection for memory corruption detection architectures

Memory corruption detection technologies are described. A method may store in a register an address of a memory corruption detection (MCD) table. The method receives, from an application, a memory store request to store data in a first portion of a contiguous memory block of a memory and sends, to t...

Zusammenfassung:Memory corruption detection technologies are described. A method may store in a register an address of a memory corruption detection (MCD) table. The method receives, from an application, a memory store request to store data in a first portion of a contiguous memory block of a memory and sends, to the application, a fault message when a fault event associated with the first portion occurs in view of a protection mode of the first portion, wherein the protection mode indicates that the first portion is write protected.
