Hi all,
'man proc' suggests that via the /proc/<pid>/mem entry one can
access the pages of a process's memory through open, read and fseek.
`strace'ing cat suggests that it uses open, read and fseek syscalls. But
when I do 'cat /proc/<pid>/mem' open works but read fails. Output says
mem: No such process.
I don't get this behavior. Somebody please explain.
