| This is a library for handling page faults in user mode. A page fault occurs |
| when a program tries to access to a region of memory that is currently not |
| available. Catching and handling a page fault is a useful technique for |
| implementing: |
| |
| - pageable virtual memory, |
| - memory-mapped access to persistent databases, |
| - generational garbage collectors, |
| - stack overflow handlers, |
| - distributed shared memory, |
