Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/1] x86: Add process memory layout to coredump file
This is readelf's patch which can retrieve maps in coredump
file, and it is based on binutils-2.21.1.
Usage: ./readelf -m coredumpfile
https://github.com/cdma/coredumpmap/blob/dev/readelf.c
https://github.com/cdma/coredumpmap/blob/dev/common.h
