#### SVR4 process information

Many versions of SVR4 provide a facility called `/proc` that can be used to examine the image of a running process using file-system subroutines. If GDB is configured for an operating system with this facility, the command `info proc` is available to report on several kinds of information about the process running your program. `info proc` works only on SVR4 systems that include the `procfs` code. This includes OSF/1 (Digital Unix), Solaris, Irix, and Unixware, but not HP-UX or Linux, for example.

`info proc`
  Summarize available information about the process.
`info proc mappings`
  Report on the address ranges accessible in the program, with information on whether your program may read, write, or execute each range.
