Python read Linux memory process error (/proc/$pid/mem) -


i have following code tested on linux distros (debian, linux mint...) , working, under centos error run root:

#!/usr/bin/env python import re maps_file = open("/proc/18396/maps", 'r') mem_file = open("/proc/18396/mem", 'r', 0) line in maps_file.readlines():  # each mapped region     m = re.match(r'([0-9a-fa-f]+)-([0-9a-fa-f]+) ([-r])', line)     if m.group(3) == 'r':  # if readable region         start = int(m.group(1), 16)         end = int(m.group(2), 16)         mem_file.seek(start)  # seek region start         chunk = mem_file.read(end - start)  # read region contents         print chunk,  # dump contents standard output maps_file.close() mem_file.close()

the script reads process' memory , dumps readable region. under centos 5.4 x64 following error:

traceback (most recent call last):   file "./mem.py", line 11, in ?     chunk = mem_file.read(end - start)  # read region contents ioerror: [errno 3] no such process

the process alive , readable:

[root@localhost ~]# ps xa|grep 18396 18396 ?        s      0:00 /usr/sbin/httpd [root@localhost ~]# ls -al /proc/18396/maps && ls -al /proc/18396/mem -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 jan 31 17:26 /proc/18396/maps -rw------- 1 root root 0 jan 31 17:26 /proc/18396/mem

any idea? tried under python 2.4 , python 2.7 works on debian-like distros not under centos.

found answer myself after digging:

#!/usr/bin/env python import ctypes, re, sys  ## partial interface ptrace(2), ptrace_attach , ptrace_detach. c_ptrace = ctypes.cdll("libc.so.6").ptrace c_pid_t = ctypes.c_int32 # assumes pid_t int32_t c_ptrace.argtypes = [ctypes.c_int, c_pid_t, ctypes.c_void_p, ctypes.c_void_p] def ptrace(attach, pid):     op = ctypes.c_int(16 if attach else 17) #ptrace_attach or ptrace_detach     c_pid = c_pid_t(pid)     null = ctypes.c_void_p()     err = c_ptrace(op, c_pid, null, null)     if err != 0: raise syserror, 'ptrace', err  pid = "18396"  ptrace(true, int(pid)) maps_file = open("/proc/"+pid+"/maps", 'r') mem_file = open("/proc/"+pid+"/mem", 'r', 0) line in maps_file.readlines():  # each mapped region     m = re.match(r'([0-9a-fa-f]+)-([0-9a-fa-f]+) ([-r])', line)     if m.group(3) == 'r':  # if readable region         start = int(m.group(1), 16)         end = int(m.group(2), 16)         mem_file.seek(start)  # seek region start         chunk = mem_file.read(end - start)  # read region contents         print chunk,  # dump contents standard output maps_file.close() mem_file.close() ptrace(false, int(pid))

html - Sizing a high-res image (~8MB) to display entirely in a small div (circular, diameter 100px) -

first of all, thank being patient know simple question more couple of weeks' experience figure out. i've seen folks persevere , helpful on here , hope you're willing me. here fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/65uzf/ here 1 of places searched answers on here: ( vertically center image thumbnails fix-sized div ) tried solutions on there , didn't work out me. i've searched ~4 or 5 others, , been unsuccessful those, too. what want take large image (what linked background-image #ysypic , #tabpic divs) , display thumbnail version of image in confines of divs have set it. is, using background properties have laid out in css, portion of image displays inside of circular divs. without these properties, display defaults smaller section of image [presumably pi*(50^2) area in top left] terrible resolution. i not care if entire image doesn't display inside of circles (it won't, given difference in shape), , overflow not being displayed fine. want able see figu

java - IntelliJ - No such instance method -

using intellij's 12 ultimate, i'm running following code in debugger: java import play.api.libs.json.jsvalue; public class foo { ... public jsvalue tojson() { ... } public class fooexample { ... foo foo = new foo(); system.out.println("...); //<-- breakpoint at breakpoint, right-clicked source code , picked "evaluate expression," typing in: foo.tojson() . but following error showed up: no such instance method: play.api.libs.json.jsvalue$class.com.foo.foo.tojson () am doing wrong? foo#tojson calls scala code, if matters. edit had breakpoint after instantiation of foo. downvoted it, deserved it. edit my answer no longer valid after op modified question (i.e. moved breakpoint actual is).. a breakpoint hit before line executed. in case foo has not yet been declared or instantiated (i.e. foo constructor has not yet been called). you'll need put breakpoint @ next line (or step on current line) if want evaluate foo .

identifier - Is it possible for an html5 document to have two ids? -

i wondering if html5 element can have 2 ids, this: <button id="thing1" id="thing2" name="button1" onclick="change()">click here</button> or this: <button id="thing1, thing2" name="button1" onclick="change()">click here</button> also, if 1 of ids said 1 thing, , other id said thing, 1 used? tl;dr : no. in versions of html, each element can have 1 id. see the spec : the id attribute specifies element's unique identifier (id). [dom] the value must unique amongst ids in element's home subtree , must contain @ least 1 character. the value must not contain space characters. note: there no other restrictions on form id can take; in particular, ids can consist of digits, start digit, start underscore, consist of punctuation , etc. note: element's unique identifier can used variety of purposes, notably way link specific parts of document usin
