Hi,
The command cat /proc/PID/maps shows the memory map(virtual addresses) of the process.How these address are actually mapped?

Thanks,

Code:
anisha@linux-uitj:~> cat /proc/PID/maps
cat: /proc/PID/maps: No such file or directory
Is there a typo in your post ?

No - that is a placeholder for a PID; usually written like <pid>.
