PMAP(1)			      Linux User's Manual		       PMAP(1)

NAME
       pmap - display information about process memory mappings

SYNOPSIS
       pmap [ -d | -q | -h | -V | -A low,high ] pid

DESCRIPTION
       pmap(1) displays information about a process's memory mappings, such as
       its stack, data segment, mapped files, and so on.

       The pmap(1) utility will show, for each mapping of a given process, the
       starting byte address in the process's address space, the size, the RSS
       (size of the mapping in physical memory), the amount  of	 dirty	pages,
       the  permission,	 the device node, the offset, and the file backing the
       mapping, if any.

       As the last line of output, the pmap(1) utility will tally up the total
       size of all mappings as well as show the total size of writable/private
       mappings and of shared mappings.
