Does Linux support Data Exectiion Protection ?

[Aaron Gray]

Does Linux suppoert DEP, on newer x86 CPU's ?

I am wondering as this does effect alot of VM's using JIT technology if they 
are wriiten without proper code memory allocation. This is a problem for 
StrongTalk and FoNC' IDC. If EP is availiable how configurable is it ?

Many thanks in advance,

Aaron
