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.
