Comment #6 on issue 348 by [email protected]: asan does not always detect access beyond mmaped page
https://code.google.com/p/address-sanitizer/issues/detail?id=348

Yeah, the limit on the number of mappings with different permissions appears to be quite strict: http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/include/linux/sched/sysctl.h#L34 (that's 2^16-5).

IMO we'd better not change the behavior of mmap(), because there's a number of corner cases when the users don't want that. If we do that solely for libc (i.e. if __NR_mmap remains unintercepted) we'll have all sorts of mixed {mmap,munmap}_{with,without}_redzone() calls for the same pages that'll end up corrupting something.
