Subject: [PATCH v4] fs/proc: add VmTaskSize field to /proc/$$/status
Date:   Thu, 13 Jun 2019 10:54:50 -0400
Message-Id: <1560437690-13919-1-git-send-email-jsavitz@redhat.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

The kernel provides no architecture-independent mechanism to get the
size of the virtual address space of a task (userspace process) without
brute-force calculation. This patch allows a user to easily retrieve
this value via a new VmTaskSize entry in /proc/$$/status.
