Consider the following memory layout for thread A (address ranges are inclusive):
Kernel space:
0xd0000000 - 0xdfffffff
Shared libraries:
0xb0000000 - 0xbfffffff
Stack:
random location between 0x80000000 - 0x8fffffff
Heap:
0x40000000 - 0x7fffffff
Data and Text:
random location between 0x10000000 - 0x3fffffff
Consider another thread B in the system. What is lowest possible memory address for the kernel space in thread B if:
1) Thread B is in the same process as thread A?
2) Thread B is in a different process from thread A?
Express your answer as a single hexadecimal number (not a range). Do not include leading 0's (if they exist). For example, 0x00001000 would be represented as 0x1000.
