:       obreak(vm, end + size);
:       vm_map_protect(&vm->vm_map, end, end + size, VM_PROT_READ);
:
:And vm_map_protect() will create new map entry (it should, right?)
:with entry->start =3D end and entry->end =3D end + size.
:
:But what happend with those entries when execve() is called?
:Because process' map catched before execve() doesn't exists after
:execve() is called. So maybe those entries (with VM_PROT_READ) are
:reused somehow?

:THANKS!

    Hmm.  Well, when a process forks the vm_map_entry's fork along with
    it.  The underlying VM objects remain shared but become copy-on-write.

    It sounds like whatever you are doing is messing up the user stack, and
    the program is bus-faulting when it can't write to the user stack.
    All sorts of things have to write to the user stack, including the
    signal trampoline code and even execve().

    The fault address you reported earlier, 0xbfbffc20, is on the user stack.
