15.2. Linux Memory Layout
The 4 GB address space in 32 bit x86 Linux is usually split into different sections for every process on the system:
- 0GB-1GB User space - Used for text, code and
brk/sbrkallocations.mallocusesbrkfor small chunks. - 1GB-3GB User space - Used for shared libraries, shared memory, and the stack. Shared memory and
mallocusemmap.mallocusesmmapfor large chunks. - 3GB-4GB Kernel Space - Used by and for the kernel itself
In older Linux systems the split between
brk(2) and mmap(2) was changed by setting the kernel parameter TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE and by recompiling the kernel. However, on all Red Hat Enterprise Linux systems this parameter can be changed dynamically as will be shown later. The mmap allocated memory grow bottom up from 1GB and the stack grows top down from around 3GB. The split between userspace and kernelspace is set by the kernel parameter PAGE_OFFSET which is usually 0xc0000000 (3GB).
By default, in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 the address space between
0x40000000 (1 GB) and 0xc0000000 (3 GB) is available for mapping shared libraries and shared memory segments. The default mapped base for loading shared libraries is 0x40000000 (1 GB) and the SGA attach address for shared memory segments is above the shared libraries. In Oracle 9i on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 the default SGA attach address for shared memory is 0x50000000 (1.25 GB) where the SGA is mapped. This leaves 0.25 GB space for loading shared libraries between 0x40000000 (1 GB) and 0x50000000 (1.25 GB).
The address mappings of processes can be checked by viewing the proc file
/proc/<pid>/maps where pid stands for the process ID. Here is an example of a default address mapping of an Oracle 9i process in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1:
As this address mapping shows, shared libraries start at
0x40000000 (1 GB) and System V shared memory, in this case SGA, starts at 0x50000000 (1.25 GB). Here is a summary of all the entries:
The text (code) section is mapped at 0x08048000:
08048000-0ab11000 r-xp 00000000 08:09 273078 /ora/product/9.2.0/bin/oracle
08048000-0ab11000 r-xp 00000000 08:09 273078 /ora/product/9.2.0/bin/oracle
The data section is mapped at 0x0ab11000:
0ab11000-0ab99000 rw-p 02ac8000 08:09 273078 /ora/product/9.2.0/bin/oracle
0ab11000-0ab99000 rw-p 02ac8000 08:09 273078 /ora/product/9.2.0/bin/oracle
The uninitialized data segment .bss is allocated at 0x0ab99000:
0ab99000-0ad39000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0
0ab99000-0ad39000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0
The base address for shared libraries is 0x40000000:
40000000-40016000 r-xp 00000000 08:01 16 /lib/ld-2.2.4.so
40000000-40016000 r-xp 00000000 08:01 16 /lib/ld-2.2.4.so
The base address for System V shared memory, in this case SGA, is 0x50000000:
50000000-50400000 rw-s 00000000 00:04 163842 /SYSV00000000 (deleted)
50000000-50400000 rw-s 00000000 00:04 163842 /SYSV00000000 (deleted)
The stack is allocated at 0xbfffb000:
bfffb000-c0000000 rwxp ffffc000 00:00 0
bfffb000-c0000000 rwxp ffffc000 00:00 0
