Dear All, I am writing a kernel module which will accept user process id (PID) as input and dump all the address space of that user process,like stack,heap segment.
I took mm->start_brk as start of heap ,mm->brk as end of heap,then i am seeing, even though user process is not using 33 pages heap size shows as 33 pages (mm->brk -mm->start_brk) . (This i verified using /proc/pid/maps) .Stack also behaves in similar way, *So is there any way i can find out the really used heap staring from mm->start_brk,So that i can dump only the used heap* -- Thanks Dhyan
