<oriansj>well mmap is a viable option as brk is easy to approximate with it
<oriansj>(although, it oddly lacks a probably_bad_idea flag, as it can be abused to get the kernel to turn off L1 caching of a process' pages)
<oriansj>which is a hard 10-100x slow down; which in theory could never occur when doing brk
<Googulator>how would qemu come into play with brk vs mmap?
<Googulator>or is this with userspace emulation?
<stikonas>yes, with userspace emulation
