Dictionary of Debugging: User Space
User Space
The linear range of memory addresses, a sub-interval of a memory space, that computational process instructions can potentially read values from. For example, for a memory space [0, M] the user space can have the range of [0, N] addresses, where N < M, as illustrated on the following diagram valid for most of contemporary operating systems:
The memory contents might not be available for specific memory regions of a user space.
