+ Allow naming anonymous virtual memory areas.
+
+ This feature allows assigning names to virtual memory areas. Assigned
+ names can be later retrieved from /proc/pid/maps and /proc/pid/smaps
+ and help identifying individual anonymous memory areas.
+ Assigning a name to anonymous virtual memory area might prevent that
+ area from being merged with adjacent virtual memory areas due to the
+ difference in their name.
