pmap:tldr:47e53

The pmap --extended ${pid} command is used to display the memory map of a specific process identified by its process ID (PID). It provides an overview of how the process is using memory, including the memory regions and their permissions.

Here is a breakdown of the command:

• pmap: It is a command used to display the memory map of a process.
• --extended: This option shows a more detailed output, providing additional information about each memory region.
• ${pid}: It is a placeholder for the actual process ID of the process for which you want to obtain the memory map. You need to replace ${pid} with the specific PID you wish to inspect.

By running this command, you can see the memory regions of the specified process along with their permissions (read, write, execute), size, offset, and other details. This can be helpful for analyzing the memory usage and behavior of a particular process.
