But we only asked for 800 bytes, which could have been satisfied by
those 4KB that were reserved there, no? So why dod the commit fail?

As I read it, the first bloc has been reserved and committed for 4k = 0x10000 starting at 0x1f0000, and then 800 bytes

have been asked for at 0x1f0000+0x10000 = 0x200000, but we failedl to extend the block (mmap_realloc failed

to commit further pages to accommodate the 800 bytes).

Am I wrong ?
