Subject: [PATCH] proc: Enable smaps_rollup without ptrace rights
Date:   Thu, 8 Sep 2022 11:39:19 +0200

smaps_rollup is currently only allowed on processes which the user has
ptrace permissions for, since it uses a common proc open function used
by other files like mem and smaps.

However, while smaps provides detailed, individual information about
each memory map in the process (justifying its ptrace rights
requirement), smaps_rollup only provides a summary of the memory usage,
which is not unlike the information available from other places like the
status and statm files, which do not need ptrace permissions.

The first line of smaps_rollup could however be sensitive, since it
exposes the randomized start and end of the process' address space.
This information however does not seem essential to smap_rollup's
purpose and could be replaced with placeholder values to preserve the
format without leaking information.  (I could not find any user space in
Debian or Android which uses the information in the first line.)

Replace the start with 0 and end with ~0 and allow smaps_rollup to be
opened and read regardless of ptrace permissions.
