|
|
// THE GORY DETAILS
|
|
//
|
|
// Did you know it's next-to-impossible to atomically read the whole contents
|
|
// of /proc/<pid>/maps? You would think that if we passed in a large-enough
|
|
// buffer to read() that It Should Just Work(tm), but sadly that's not the case.
|
|
//
|
|
// Linux's procfs uses seq_file [1] for handling iteration, text formatting,
|
|
// and dealing with resulting data that is larger than the size of a page. That
|
|
// last bit is especially important because it means that seq_file will never
|
|
// return more than the size of a page in a single call to read().
|
|
//
|
|
// Unfortunately for a program like Chrome the size of /proc/self/maps is
|
|
// larger than the size of page so we're forced to call read() multiple times.
|
|
// If the virtual memory table changed in any way between calls to read() (e.g.,
|
|
// a different thread calling mprotect()), it can make seq_file generate
|
|
// duplicate entries or skip entries.
|
|
//
|
|
// Even if seq_file was changed to keep flushing the contents of its page-sized
|
|
// buffer to the usermode buffer inside a single call to read(), it has to
|
|
// release its lock on the virtual memory table to handle page faults while
|
|
// copying data to usermode. This puts us in the same situation where the table
|
|
// can change while we're copying data.
|
|
//
|
|
// Alternatives such as fork()-and-suspend-the-parent-while-child-reads were
|
|
// attempted, but they present more subtle problems than it's worth. Depending
|
|
// on your use case your best bet may be to read /proc/<pid>/maps prior to
|
|
// starting other threads.
