|A patch to give a better overview of the userland application stack usage,
|especially for embedded linux.
|
|Currently you are only able to dump the main process/thread stack usage
|which is showed in /proc/pid/status by the "VmStk" Value. But you get no
|information about the consumed stack memory of the the threads.
|
|There is an enhancement in the /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/*maps and which marks
|the vm mapping where the thread stack pointer reside with "[thread stack
|xxxxxxxx]". xxxxxxxx is the maximum size of stack. This is a value
|information, because libpthread doesn't set the start of the stack to the
|top of the mapped area, depending of the pthread usage.
|
|A sample output of /proc/<pid>/task/<tid>/maps looks like:
|
|08048000-08049000 r-xp 00000000 03:00 8312 /opt/z
|08049000-0804a000 rw-p 00001000 03:00 8312 /opt/z
