Hello,
Given a pointer value, is there some relatively trivial way to
determine whether or not it points to a valid readable or writeable
address? i.e. is there a way to find out whether accessing the address
will cause a panic? I'm interested in how to do this from a KEXT, but
it also seems like it would be a useful ability to have in user-space
too.
Thanks,
Brent Marykuca
