I've come across a situation where the simplified code is as follows:

 long  address = (long) mmap(NULL,1024*1024*2,PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, 
MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS,-1,0);

long new_address = address + 9;

 long *p = (long*) new_address;
 long v = -1;

 __atomic_store(p, &v, __ATOMIC_RELEASE);


coredump occurs after executing __atomic_store, but the user code can't 
be changed,

so I'm trying to enable NAA to solve this problem.
