how to snapshot process memory mapping

[Jieming Wang]

Hi,

Solaris has utility called pmap to allow user to list memory address mapping. Is there anything similar for HP-UX?

Thanks

The pstat_getprocvm system call
can get memory mapping information. The attached procvm.c program will report much the same information as pmap, but in a much more verbose format. The pst_length value is the size of a memory region counted in 4096 byte pages.
The pst_phys_pages value is the resident number of 4096 byte pages.

Thanks Mike.

It works (the format is a little different from pmap).

Another question: can I get something like truss that is available on Solaris?

Thanks again.

For HP-UX 11.00 and later you can use tusc, avilable from

For HP-UX 10.20 you would need to track down a copy of truss. Truss is not as widely usable.
