Can a page fault be a segmentation fault?


Asked by Simone Delarosa on Dec 11, 2021 FAQ



Segmentation faults can also occur independently of page faults: illegal access to a valid page is a segmentation fault, but not an invalid page fault, and segmentation faults can occur in the middle of a page (hence no page fault), for example in a buffer overflow that stays within a page but illegally overwrites memory.
Accordingly,
Thanks and regards! These two things are very dissimilar, actually. A segmentation fault means a program tried to access an invalid or illegal memory address: for example, 0, or a value larger than any valid pointer.
Also Know, Writing to read-only memory raises a segmentation fault. At the level of code errors, this occurs when the program writes to part of its own code segment or the read-only portion of the data segment, as these are loaded by the OS into read-only memory.
Furthermore,
Page faults occur when memory that is mapped but not loaded is accessed. They are not errors, and signal to the operating system that it should load the appropriate page into memory. Thanks for contributing an answer to Stack Overflow! Please be sure to answer the question.
And,
To tackle this disadvantage, a fully automated GC procedure based on mapping the image data into a high dimension using a kernel function, called kernel graph cuts (KGC), was developed ( Salah, Mitiche, & Ayed, 2011 ). One of the challenging medical image segmentation applications is skin lesion segmentation.
