This is a simple Rust tool to analyse the allocated memory space for a process under Linux. The plan is to visualize both the virtual memory of a process and its mapping to physical memory, mostly as ...

Retrieve the virtual memory mapping given a pid and output in CSV format. Platform specific (only Linux for now, using pmap). Given a csv file of process mapping on stdin and a memory address, gives ...

If you use C or C++, you have probably learned how to open a file and read data from it. Usually, we read a character or a line at a time. At least, it seems that way. The reality is there are usua… ...

Physical memory—the actual RAM installed—is a finite resource on any system. The Linux memory handler manages the allocation of that limited resource by freeing portions of physical memory when ...

Understanding Linux memory management—page tables, swapping, and memory allocation—enables system administrators and developers to optimize performance and troubleshoot issues effectively. With tools ...

The paper presents the concept of a model for managing access to virtual memory in a Linux-based operating system (OS). The concept is developed based on the analysis of approaches to memory ...

The current policy of stack memory management of Linux causes a lot of physical memory consumption in a smart device. This paper presents an efficient Linux stack management mechanism to save the ...

Memory management on Linux systems is complicated. Seeing high usage doesn’t necessarily mean there’s a problem. There are other things you should also consider.
