Right. The exact format is described in proc(4).

What do you mean by "portable?"
If you mean "portable across different versions of Solaris," then use
the /proc/self/{map,xmap} files with the structures defined in
proc(4).
If you mean "portable between Solaris, Linux, and perhaps other
systems," then you'll need to create that portability at a higher
level within your application. One way to do it is to design a
generic query API, and then have separate source files that implement
this API for each supported OS, and use your "./configure" (or
equivalent script) to select the right one at compile time.
In other words, there is no general, cross-platform way to do what
you're asking.
