Stack for a new thread is mapped by userspace code and passed via
sys_clone. This memory is currently seen as anonymous in
/proc/<pid>/maps, which makes it difficult to ascertain which mappings
are being used for thread stacks. This patch uses the individual task
stack pointers to determine which vmas are actually thread stacks.

For a multithreaded program like the following:

#include <pthread.h>

void *thread_main(void *foo)
{
while(1);
}

int main()
{
pthread_t t;
pthread_create(&t, NULL, thread_main, NULL);
pthread_join(t, NULL);
}

proc/PID/maps looks like the following:

Here, one could guess that 7f8a44492000-7f8a44c92000 is a stack since
the earlier vma that has no permissions (7f8a44e3d000-7f8a4503d000) but
that is not always a reliable way to find out which vma is a thread
stack. Also, /proc/PID/maps and /proc/PID/task/TID/maps has the same
content.

With this patch in place, /proc/PID/task/TID/maps are treated as 'maps
as the task would see it' and hence, only the vma that that task uses as
stack is marked as [stack]. All other 'stack' vmas are marked as
anonymous memory. /proc/PID/maps acts as a thread group level view,
where all thread stack vmas are marked as [stack:TID] where TID is the
process ID of the task that uses that vma as stack, while the process
stack is marked as [stack].

So /proc/PID/maps will look like this:

Thus marking all vmas that are used as stacks by the threads in the
thread group along with the process stack. The task level maps will
however like this:

H A Dtask_mmu.cdiff b7643757 Wed Mar 21 17:34:04 MDT 2012 Siddhesh Poyarekar <siddhesh.poyarekar@gmail.com> procfs: mark thread stack correctly in proc/<pid>/maps

Stack for a new thread is mapped by userspace code and passed via
sys_clone. This memory is currently seen as anonymous in
/proc/<pid>/maps, which makes it difficult to ascertain which mappings
are being used for thread stacks. This patch uses the individual task
stack pointers to determine which vmas are actually thread stacks.

For a multithreaded program like the following:

#include <pthread.h>

void *thread_main(void *foo)
{
while(1);
}

int main()
{
pthread_t t;
pthread_create(&t, NULL, thread_main, NULL);
pthread_join(t, NULL);
}

proc/PID/maps looks like the following:

Here, one could guess that 7f8a44492000-7f8a44c92000 is a stack since
the earlier vma that has no permissions (7f8a44e3d000-7f8a4503d000) but
that is not always a reliable way to find out which vma is a thread
stack. Also, /proc/PID/maps and /proc/PID/task/TID/maps has the same
content.

With this patch in place, /proc/PID/task/TID/maps are treated as 'maps
as the task would see it' and hence, only the vma that that task uses as
stack is marked as [stack]. All other 'stack' vmas are marked as
anonymous memory. /proc/PID/maps acts as a thread group level view,
where all thread stack vmas are marked as [stack:TID] where TID is the
process ID of the task that uses that vma as stack, while the process
stack is marked as [stack].

So /proc/PID/maps will look like this:

H A Dbase.cdiff b7643757 Wed Mar 21 17:34:04 MDT 2012 Siddhesh Poyarekar <siddhesh.poyarekar@gmail.com> procfs: mark thread stack correctly in proc/<pid>/maps

Stack for a new thread is mapped by userspace code and passed via
sys_clone. This memory is currently seen as anonymous in
/proc/<pid>/maps, which makes it difficult to ascertain which mappings
are being used for thread stacks. This patch uses the individual task
stack pointers to determine which vmas are actually thread stacks.

For a multithreaded program like the following:

#include <pthread.h>

void *thread_main(void *foo)
{
while(1);
}

int main()
{
pthread_t t;
pthread_create(&t, NULL, thread_main, NULL);
pthread_join(t, NULL);
}

proc/PID/maps looks like the following:

Here, one could guess that 7f8a44492000-7f8a44c92000 is a stack since
the earlier vma that has no permissions (7f8a44e3d000-7f8a4503d000) but
that is not always a reliable way to find out which vma is a thread
stack. Also, /proc/PID/maps and /proc/PID/task/TID/maps has the same
content.

With this patch in place, /proc/PID/task/TID/maps are treated as 'maps
as the task would see it' and hence, only the vma that that task uses as
stack is marked as [stack]. All other 'stack' vmas are marked as
anonymous memory. /proc/PID/maps acts as a thread group level view,
where all thread stack vmas are marked as [stack:TID] where TID is the
process ID of the task that uses that vma as stack, while the process
stack is marked as [stack].

So /proc/PID/maps will look like this:

Thus marking all vmas that are used as stacks by the threads in the
thread group along with the process stack. The task level maps will
however like this:

H A Dmm.hdiff b7643757 Wed Mar 21 17:34:04 MDT 2012 Siddhesh Poyarekar <siddhesh.poyarekar@gmail.com> procfs: mark thread stack correctly in proc/<pid>/maps

Stack for a new thread is mapped by userspace code and passed via
sys_clone. This memory is currently seen as anonymous in
/proc/<pid>/maps, which makes it difficult to ascertain which mappings
are being used for thread stacks. This patch uses the individual task
stack pointers to determine which vmas are actually thread stacks.

For a multithreaded program like the following:

#include <pthread.h>

void *thread_main(void *foo)
{
while(1);
}

int main()
{
pthread_t t;
pthread_create(&t, NULL, thread_main, NULL);
pthread_join(t, NULL);
}

proc/PID/maps looks like the following:

Here, one could guess that 7f8a44492000-7f8a44c92000 is a stack since
the earlier vma that has no permissions (7f8a44e3d000-7f8a4503d000) but
that is not always a reliable way to find out which vma is a thread
stack. Also, /proc/PID/maps and /proc/PID/task/TID/maps has the same
content.

With this patch in place, /proc/PID/task/TID/maps are treated as 'maps
as the task would see it' and hence, only the vma that that task uses as
stack is marked as [stack]. All other 'stack' vmas are marked as
anonymous memory. /proc/PID/maps acts as a thread group level view,
where all thread stack vmas are marked as [stack:TID] where TID is the
process ID of the task that uses that vma as stack, while the process
stack is marked as [stack].

So /proc/PID/maps will look like this:

marked as [stack].

Analogous changes have been made to /proc/PID/smaps,
/proc/PID/numa_maps, /proc/PID/task/TID/smaps and
/proc/PID/task/TID/numa_maps. Relevant snippets from smaps and
numa_maps:
