I think the closest fit is:

data segment + total space in arena + holding blocks + stack size.

total space in arena == sbrk size of the process

holding blocks == memory areas allocated via mmap outside of sbrk

both the sbrk and mmap areas are maintained by the OS malloc()
implementation, outside the implementation of the application.

but it depends on what it is you are actually after. The equation above
gives how much memory besides the binary pages your OS needs to allocate
to run the application, not how much memory the application uses.
