Short: Mungwall & Enforcer DB tool w/o MMU
Author: thor@einstein.math.tu-berlin.de
Uploader: thor@einstein.math.tu-berlin.de
Type: dev/debug
Purpose of this program:
This program finds illegal memory changes by continously checking the free
memory. It also protects the memory allocation functions in a mungwall like
way. An exteral terminal or a interal low-level-debugger (like COP from the
same author) is recommended, but not needed.
MemSniff is not a Enforcer-replacement, cause you can't replace the full
functionality of a MMU, but it does all possible to find memory violations.
It does not:
-protect memory already allocated, since this is not possible without a MMU
-protect the autovector functions. This must be done by a virus checker, or
by a low level debugger like COP.
Since this memory checking is a bit tricky, there ARE KNOWN incompatibilities.
DO NOT RUN MemSniff permanently, cause it slows down your system considerably
and reduces the size of the available memory up to the half!
