如何在运行时查看我的程序在C中的内存布局？

Question

我希望看到用C语言编写的程序的内存布局，以便我可以在运行时实际理解内存的所有不同部分，例如BSS或Heap for ex？中的更改。

Answer 1

在Linux中，对于进程PID，请查看/proc/PID/maps和/proc/PID/smaps伪文件。（该过程本身可以使用/proc/self/maps和/proc/self/smaps。）

它们的内容记录在man 5 proc中。

这是一个如何将内容读入地址范围结构的链接列表的示例。

mem-stats.h ：

#define PERMS_SHARED             8U

使用以上示例的示例程序 example.c ：

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include "mem-stats.h"

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    int  arg, pid;
    char dummy;

    if (argc < 2 || !strcmp(argv[1], "-h") || !strcmp(argv[1], "--help")) {
        fprintf(stderr, "\n");
        fprintf(stderr, "Usage: %s [ -h | --help ]\n", argv[0]);
        fprintf(stderr, "       %s PID\n", argv[0]);
        fprintf(stderr, "\n");
        fprintf(stderr, "You can use PID 0 as an alias for the command itself.\n");
        fprintf(stderr, "\n");
        return EXIT_SUCCESS;
    }

    for (arg = 1; arg < argc; arg++)
        if (sscanf(argv[arg], " %i %c", &pid, &dummy) == 1) {
            address_range *list, *curr;

            if (!pid)
                pid = getpid();

            list = mem_stats((pid_t)pid);
            if (!list) {
                fprintf(stderr, "Cannot obtain memory usage of process %d: %s.\n", pid, strerror(errno));
                return EXIT_FAILURE;
            }

            printf("Process %d:\n", pid);
            for (curr = list; curr != NULL; curr = curr->next)
                printf("\t%p .. %p: %s\n", curr->start, (void *)((char *)curr->start + curr->length), curr->name);
            printf("\n");
            fflush(stdout);

            free_mem_stats(list);

        } else {
            fprintf(stderr, "%s: Invalid PID.\n", argv[arg]);
            return EXIT_FAILURE;
        }

    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

和一个使构建起来很简单的 Makefile ：

CC      := gcc
CFLAGS  := -Wall -Wextra -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer
LDFLAGS := 
PROGS   := example

.PHONY: all clean

all: clean $(PROGS)

clean:
    rm -f *.o $(PROGS)

%.o: %.c
    $(CC) $(CFLAGS) -c $^

example: mem-stats.o example.o
    $(CC) $(CFLAGS) $^ $(LDFLAGS) -o $@

请注意，上面的Makefile中的三行缩进行 必须 使用制表符，而不是空格。似乎这里的编辑器将制表符转换为空格，因此您需要修复此问题，例如通过使用

sed -e 's|^  *|\t|' -i Makefile

如果您不解决缩进问题，而在Makefile中使用空格，则会看到类似于的错误消息*** missing separator. Stop。

某些编辑器会自动将tab按键转换为多个空格，因此您可能需要研究使用的任何编辑器的编辑器设置。通常，编辑者会完整保留粘贴的制表符，因此您始终可以尝试从另一个程序粘贴制表符。

要编译并运行，请保存以上文件并运行：

make
./example 0

打印示例程序本身使用的内存范围。例如，如果您想查看PulseAudio守护程序使用的内存范围，请运行：

./example $(ps -o pid= -C pulseaudio)

请注意，适用标准访问限制。普通用户只能看到以该用户身份运行的进程的内存范围。否则，您需要超级用户权限（sudo或类似权限）。
