Subject: [RESEND][PATCH] Mark thread stack correctly in proc/<pid>/maps

Hi,

Resending since I did not get any feedback on the second take of the patch.

Thanks,
Siddhesh

[Take 2]

Memory mmaped by glibc for a thread stack currently shows up as a simple
anonymous map, which makes it difficult to differentiate between memory
usage of the thread on stack and other dynamic allocation. Since glibc
already uses MAP_STACK to request this mapping, the attached patch
uses this flag to add additional VM_STACK_FLAGS to the resulting vma
so that the mapping is treated as a stack and not any regular
anonymous mapping. Also, one may use vm_flags to decide if a vma is a
stack.

This patch also changes the maps output to annotate stack guards for
both the process stack as well as the thread stacks. Thus is born the
[stack guard] annotation, which should be exactly a page long for the
process stack and can be longer than a page (configurable in
userspace) for POSIX compliant thread stacks. A thread stack guard is
simply page(s) with PROT_NONE.

If accepted, this should also reflect in the man page for mmap since
MAP_STACK will no longer be a noop.
