If you are willing to try again, I can send my libtest.c which is used to test by myself (actually, it shouldn't be target DSO problem).

But, I am thinking about whether this will lead to DDoS attack? I remember the reason of DSO has ignored MAP_DENYWRITE in kernel is that DDoS attack. In addition, 'deny_write_access' will change the behavior, such as user will get 'Text file busy' during collapse_file. I am not sure whether the behavior changing is acceptable in user space. If it is acceptable, I am very willing to fix the races like your way.
