pub fn is_mapped_address(address: Address) -> bool
Expand description

Is the address in the mapped memory? The runtime can use this function to check if an address is mapped by MMTk. Note that this is different than is_in_mmtk_spaces(). For malloc spaces, MMTk does not map those addresses (malloc does the mmap), so this function will return false, but is_in_mmtk_spaces will return true if the address is actually a valid object in malloc spaces. To check if an object is in our heap, the runtime should always use is_in_mmtk_spaces(). This function is_mapped_address() may get removed at some point.

Arguments:

  • address: The address to query.
