  This is a proof-of-concept exploit that is able to escape from Native
  Client's x86-64 sandbox on machines that are susceptible to the DRAM
  "rowhammer" problem.It works by inducing a bit flip in read-only
  code so that the code is no longer safe, producing instruction
  sequences that wouldn't pass NaCl's x86-64 validator.
  
  Note that this uses the CLFLUSH instruction, so it doesn't work in
  newer versions of NaCl where this instruction is disallowed by the
  validator.
  
  There are two ways to test the exploit program without getting a real
  rowhammer-induced bit flip:
  
   * Unit testing: rowhammer_escape_test.c can be compiled and run as a
   Linux executable (instead of as a NaCl executable).In this case,
   it tests each possible bit flip in its code template, checking that
   each is handled correctly.
  
   * Testing inside NaCl: The patch "inject_bit_flip_for_testing.patch"
   modifies NaCl's dyncode_create() syscall to inject a bit flip for
   testing purposes.This syscall is NaCl's interface for loading
   code dynamically.
