- Subject: RFC: "info proc map" for corefiles
Hi guys and girls,
This little patch o' mine implements the command "info proc map" for
corefiles in GDB. Initially, this feature is only provided for live
process being debugged. We decided that it would be good to have such
functionality for corefiles as well, since this information (the memory
mappings) is available inside them.
This was something that Thiago and I have discussed for some time, and
it took a little while for me to figure out how things worked in this
part of the code. I really don't know if this is the right way to
implement this, so I'd be glad if you could take a look and give your
opinions.
It's not architecture-dependend so this time you'll be able to test
without problems. Comments and reviews are welcome, as always.
This is a little example of this feature working:
sergio@miki ~/work/gdb/build-32/gdb $ ./gdb /tmp/teste core.13754
GNU gdb (GDB) 6.8.50.20081218-cvs
...
(gdb) info proc map
exe = '/tmp/teste'
Mapped address spaces:
Start Addr End Addr Size objfile
0x8048000 0x8049000 0x1000 /tmp/teste
0x8049000 0x804a000 0x1000 /tmp/teste

0xb7fc0000 0xb7fc1000 0x1000
0xb7fc1000 0xb7fc5000 0x4000
0xb7fe4000 0xb7ffe000 0x1a000 /lib/ld-linux.so.2
0xb7ffe000 0xb7fff000 0x1000 /lib/ld-linux.so.2
0xb7fff000 0xb8000000 0x1000 /lib/ld-linux.so.2
0xbffeb000 0xc0000000 0x15000
0xffffe000 0xfffff000 0x1000 system-supplied DSO at
0xffffe000
The corefile used here (core.13754) was generated using the "gcore"
command inside GDB.
