Hello:
Is it possible to arrange that a Linux application
(or one of its threads) has the ability to
"... lock (a certain) stack and data segment ...
into memory so that it can't be swapped out"?
[This has been formulated as a requirement by one of
our analysts.]
I have been told that this is unlikely (except by
disabling swapout altogether (for all processes).
Any hints as to where to look for a solution (i.e.,
pointers to documentation or manuals where the ifs
and hows are explained) would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks in advance,
F.P.Weber
P.S. Due to security on our mail-server i am unable to
