/*
   The stack
   ~~~~~~~~~
   The stack's segment seems to be dynamically extended downwards by
   the kernel as the stack pointer moves down.  Initially, a 1-page
   (4k) stack is allocated.  When SP moves below that for the first
   time, presumably a page fault occurs.  The kernel detects that the
   faulting address is in the range from SP - VG_STACK_REDZONE_SZB
   upwards to the current valid stack.  It then extends the stack
   segment downwards for enough to cover the faulting address, and
   resumes the process (invisibly).  The process is unaware of any of
   this.

   That means that Valgrind can't spot when the stack segment is being
   extended.  Fortunately, we want to precisely and continuously
   update stack permissions around SP, so we need to spot all writes
   to SP anyway.

   The deal is: when SP is assigned a lower value, the stack is being
   extended.  Create suitably-permissioned pages to fill in any holes
   between the old stack ptr and this one, if necessary.  Then mark
   all bytes in the area just "uncovered" by this SP change as
   write-only.

   When SP goes back up, mark the area receded over as unreadable and
   unwritable.

   Just to record the SP boundary conditions somewhere convenient: 
   SP - VG_STACK_REDZONE_SZB always points to the lowest live byte in
   the stack.  All addresses below SP - VG_STACK_REDZONE_SZB are not
   live; those at and above it are.

   We do not concern ourselves here with the VG_STACK_REDZONE_SZB
   bias; that is handled by new_mem_stack/die_mem_stack.
