Documentation

hr_procmaps **contruct_procmaps(int pid);

Parse /proc/<PID>/maps to create an object hr_procmaps containing information on the maps of the process PID. The pid argument is the PID of the process to get the maps of. If it is set to 0 or a negative value, the function will parse /proc/self/maps instead, fetching information about itself.

void destroy_procmaps(hr_procmaps **procmaps);

Destroy the hr_procmaps object freeing the allocated memory.

Example :

#include <stdio.h>
#include <procmaps.h>

int main(void)
{
	hr_procmaps **procmaps = construct_procmaps(0);
	
	printf("0x%0llx", procmaps[0]->addr_begin);
	destroy_procmaps(procmaps);
	return 0;
}
