# pmap 0
(omitting non RWX mappings)

it's possible pmap (the program) is wrong, but it seems like any executable mapping is also writable.

State-Changed-By: maxv@NetBSD.org
State-Changed-When: Fri, 09 Feb 2018 09:17:44 +0000
State-Changed-Why:
There is no RWX mapping on amd64. What "pmap 0" displays is the maximum permission
of a map, and by default, the maximum permission used in UVM is RWX. But the pages
are later kentered manually, and they are actually never RWX.
