procmaps.rs

procmaps.rs is a (very) small Rust library with one job: parsing the memory maps that Linux (and some other Unices) expose via /proc/<pid>/maps with a pleasant structure.

I wrote it before realizing that procmaps already exists. You should probably use that one instead, since it's nearly identical.

A quick sample:

let maps = rsprocmaps::from_pid(9001)?;

for map in maps {
  println!("{} executable? {}", map.address_range, map.permissions.executable);
}

Full documentation is available on docs.rs.

Goals

• Parsing /proc/<pid>/maps correctly and into a clean structure

Anti-goals

• Parsing other parts of /proc
• Resolving fundamental ambiguities in the maps file format (e.g. newlines and deleted pathnames)
