[PATCH 16/19] Generate the data sections for ELF Core

From: Janani Venkataraman
Date: Fri Oct 04 2013 - 06:33:06 EST


From:Suzuki K. Poulose <suzuki@xxxxxxxxxx>

Generate the "data" for the memory regions. Also write down the section header
if we have, number of phdrs > PN_XNUM.

The vma areas are read, page by page using access_process_vm() without an
mmap_sem. If there are active threads, then we may miss a vma if it is removed
while we are doing the read.
