A new macro PROT_MAX() alters a protection value so it can be OR'd with a regular protection value to specify the maximum permissions. If present, these flags specify the maximum permissions. While these flags are non-portable, they can be used in portable code with simple ifdefs to expand PROT_MAX() to 0. This change allows (e.g.) a region that must be writable during run-time linking or JIT code generation to be made permanently read+execute after writes are complete. This complements W^X protections allowing more precise control by the programmer. This change alters mprotect argument checking and returns an error when unhandled protection flags are set. This differs from POSIX (in that POSIX only specifies an error), but is the documented behavior on Linux and more closely matches historical mmap behavior. In addition to explicit setting of the maximum permissions, an experimental sysctl vm.imply_prot_max causes mmap to assume that the initial permissions requested should be the maximum when the sysctl is set to 1. PROT_NONE mappings are excluded from this for compatibility with rtld and other consumers that use such mappings to reserve address space before mapping contents into part of the reservation. A final version this is expected to provide per-binary and per-process opt-in/out options and this sysctl will go away in its current form. As such it is undocumented.

FreeBSD
FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
