Subject: [patch] procfs: provide stack information for threads V0.6
This is the newest version of the formaly named "detailed stack info"
patch which give you 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 start address of the 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

ffffe000-fffff000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0 [vdso]
Also there is a new entry "stack usage" in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/status
which will you give the current stack usage in kb.
A sample output of /proc/self/status looks like:
Name: cat
State: R (running)
Tgid: 507
Pid: 507
.
.
.
CapBnd: fffffffffffffeff
voluntary_ctxt_switches: 0
nonvoluntary_ctxt_switches: 0
Stack usage: 12 kB
I also fixed stack base address in /proc/<pid>/{task/*,}/stat to the
base address of the associated thread stack and not the one of the main
process. This makes more sense.
Changes since last posting:
- Fix missing mm->mmap_sem locking in function task_show_stack_usage()
- Code cleanup
The patch is against 2.6.30-rc7 and tested with on intel and ppc
architectures.
The update of the Documentations/filesystems/procfs.txt will follow in a
future patch, because it is outdated and a want to fix the entry for the
status, stat, maps and smaps entries.
