5 // This file implements BSD-style setproctitle() for Linux.
6 // It is written such that it can easily be compiled outside Chromium.
7 //
8 // The Linux kernel sets up two locations in memory to pass arguments and
9 // environment variables to processes. First, there are two char* arrays stored
10 // one after another: argv and environ. A pointer to argv is passed to main(),
11 // while glibc sets the global variable |environ| to point at the latter. Both
12 // of these arrays are terminated by a NULL pointer; the environment array is
13 // also followed by some empty space to allow additional variables to be added.
14 //
15 // These arrays contain pointers to a second location in memory, where the
16 // strings themselves are stored one after another: first all the arguments,
17 // then the environment variables. The kernel will allocate a single page of
18 // memory for this purpose, so the end of the page containing argv[0] is the
19 // end of the storage potentially available to store the process title.
20 //
21 // When the kernel reads the command line arguments for a process, it looks at
22 // the range of memory within this page that it initially used for the argument
23 // list. If the terminating '\0' character is still where it expects, nothing
24 // further is done. If it has been overwritten, the kernel will scan up to the
25 // size of a page looking for another. (Note, however, that in general not that
26 // much space is actually mapped, since argv[0] is rarely page-aligned and only
27 // one page is mapped.)
28 //
29 // Thus to change the process title, we must move any environment variables out
30 // of the way to make room for a potentially longer title, and then overwrite
31 // the memory pointed to by argv[0] with a single replacement string, making
32 // sure its size does not exceed the available space.
33 //
34 // It is perhaps worth noting that patches to add a system call to Linux for
35 // this, like in BSD, have never made it in: this is the "official" way to do
36 // this on Linux. Presumably it is not in glibc due to some disagreement over
37 // this position within the glibc project, leaving applications caught in the
38 // middle. (Also, only a very few applications need or want this anyway.)
