Sergey,

Thanks for the patch! Please consider the comments below.

There is no "some" true value there is a sole one. Please fix it in both
the patch and the RFC.

Side note: This is odd that you free the buffer here, but the buffer
itself is not a part of the memprof context. Let's return to this later.

Minor: It's better to use early return here. Feel free to ignore.

If other error occurs, you need to pass the NULL to buf_addr, right?
Otherwise, there is no guarantee everything is written to the file and
profiling proceeds.

Typo: s/close corresponding/close the corresponding/.

Minor: You can make this assignment alongside with the declaration.

This is a dead code: <lj_mem_new> raises a LUA_ERRMEM.

This is a dead code: <lj_mem_new> raises a LUA_ERRMEM.

Trust me, you don't need this variable.

Minor: I doubt we need to remove a file even if LuaJIT failed to start
profiling. Leave the comment if this makes sense. Feel free to ignore.

Please, s/started/1/ since there is no another value here.

Please, s/stopped_succesfully/1/ since there is no another value here.

Why did you also initialize them for <jit.p> profiler?
