Patent attributes
An example system includes: interface circuitry; programmable circuitry; and instructions to cause the programmable circuitry to: reserve first memory addresses of a host system, the first memory addresses reserved for emulation of a guest system, the guest system based on a first instruction set architecture that is different from a second instruction set architecture of the host system; reserve second memory addresses of the host system that are contiguous with the first memory addresses, the second memory addresses reserved for a first emulated memory access instruction associated with an overflow in the guest system; reserve third memory addresses of the host system for a second emulated memory access instruction associated with an underflow in the guest system; and set memory access privileges of the second and third memory addresses to prevent at least one of a read, a write, or an execution access for the second and third memory addresses.
