Subject: [PATCHv2] procfs: fix /proc/<pid>/maps heap check
Date: Fri,  4 Mar 2011 15:23:14 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1299244994-5284-1-git-send-email-aaro.koskinen@nokia.com> (raw)

The current code fails to print the "[heap]" marking if the heap is
splitted into multiple mappings.

Fix the check so that the marking is displayed in all possible cases:
	1. vma matches exactly the heap
	2. the heap vma is merged e.g. with bss
	3. the heap vma is splitted e.g. due to locked pages

v2: Rewrote the changelog.

Test cases. In all cases, the process should have mapping(s) with
[heap] marking:

	(1) vma matches exactly the heap

	#include <stdio.h>
	#include <unistd.h>
	#include <sys/types.h>

	int main (void)
	{
		if (sbrk(4096) != (void *)-1) {
			printf("check /proc/%d/maps\n", (int)getpid());
			while (1)
				sleep(1);
		}
		return 0;
	}

	# ./test1 
	check /proc/553/maps
	[1] + Stopped                    ./test1
	# cat /proc/553/maps | head -4
	00008000-00009000 r-xp 00000000 01:00 3113640    /test1
	00010000-00011000 rw-p 00000000 01:00 3113640    /test1
	00011000-00012000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0          [heap]
	4006f000-40070000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 

	(2) the heap vma is merged

	#include <stdio.h>
	#include <unistd.h>
	#include <sys/types.h>

	char foo[4096] = "foo";
	char bar[4096];
	
	int main (void)
	{
		if (sbrk(4096) != (void *)-1) {
			printf("check /proc/%d/maps\n", (int)getpid());
			while (1)
				sleep(1);
		}
		return 0;
	}

	# ./test2
	check /proc/556/maps
	[2] + Stopped                    ./test2
	# cat /proc/556/maps | head -4
	00008000-00009000 r-xp 00000000 01:00 3116312    /test2
	00010000-00012000 rw-p 00000000 01:00 3116312    /test2
	00012000-00014000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0          [heap]
	4004a000-4004b000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0 

	(3) the heap vma is splitted (this fails without the patch)

	#include <stdio.h>
	#include <unistd.h>
	#include <sys/mman.h>
	#include <sys/types.h>

	int main (void)
	{
		if ((sbrk(4096) != (void *)-1) && !mlockall(MCL_FUTURE) &&
		    (sbrk(4096) != (void *)-1)) {
			printf("check /proc/%d/maps\n", (int)getpid());
			while (1)
				sleep(1);
		}
		return 0;
	}

	# ./test3 
	check /proc/559/maps
	[1] + Stopped                    ./test3
	# cat /proc/559/maps|head -4 
	00008000-00009000 r-xp 00000000 01:00 3119108    /test3
	00010000-00011000 rw-p 00000000 01:00 3119108    /test3
	00011000-00012000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0          [heap]
	00012000-00013000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0          [heap]
