procfs: fix /proc/<pid>/maps heap check
The current code fails to print the "[heap]" marking if the heap is split 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 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] It looks like the bug has been there forever, and since it only results in some information missing from a procfile, it does not fulfil the -stable "critical issue" criteria.
