region

A Rust library for dealing with memory regions.

It is implemented using platform specific APIs (e.g VirtualQuery, VirtualLock, mprotect, mlock).

Documentation

https://docs.rs/region

Installation

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
region = "1.0"

and this to your crate root:

extern crate region;

Example

• Cross-platform equivalents:

let ret5 = [0xB8, 0x05, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0xC3];

// Page size
let pz = region::page::size();
let pc = region::page::ceil(1234);
let pf = region::page::floor(1234);

// VirtualQuery | '/proc/self/maps'
let q  = region::query(ret5.as_ptr())?;
let qr = region::query_range(ret5.as_ptr(), ret5.len())?;

// VirtualProtect | mprotect
region::protect(ret5.as_ptr(), ret5.len(), Protection::ReadWriteExecute)?;

// VirtualLock | mlock
let guard = region::lock(ret5.as_ptr(), ret5.len())?;

Platforms

This library has (so far) support for Windows, Linux & macOS.
