Subject: Crash when memset of shared mapped memory in ARM

Hi All,

I am running below Test program on ARM cortex a9/a8 on kernel version
2.6.35.14 as well as on 3.0.

Please find the test case where:

1. Create shared memory object using shm_open(If we use normal open
then no problem only problem with shm_open)

2. ftruncate to given size

3. memory map the shared object to given memory address ( I haved
tested without MAP_SHARED, MAP_FIXED as well, problem exist)

4. Memset the shared memory (got page fault when accessing the second page)




Observation: Only observed in ARM ( i.e not present in MIPS and X86)
