Only read-only text of shared objects can unknowingly be shared by
unrelated processes.  Therefore the answer is "no."

[zones-discuss] sparse zones and isolation of information in core files

2007-07-18 Thread Christine Tran

Customer wants to know if several sparse-root zones share some library 
or text segments, and an application in a zone dumps core, could there 
be cases where there are "leaks" in the core file, containing 
information from other zones.

I can't construct a scenario that would lead to this, but I've come here 
for a definite answer.
