[cfe-dev] How does works the allocation of a writable/readable segment in ELF?

[TheMask]

A segment of *PT_LOAD* type, flags *PF_write | PF_read*, *p_filesiz = x* and
*p_memsiz = x+y* it's up to the kernel allocate *p_memsiz*, correct? How
does this allocation actually works? the kernel allocate *p_memsiz* and put
the begging of this block memory on *p_vaddr* so that the write/read memory
region of this segment is from *p_vaddr* up to *p_vaddr + p_memsiz*? if so,
what values(address) is the kernel expecting at *p_vaddr* at time before it
does the allocation?
