File Contents

# User Rev Content
1 pajs 1.1 page_stat_t *get_page_stats();
2     page_stat_t *get_page_stats_diff();
3    
4     typedef struct{
5     long long pages_pagein;
6     long long pages_pageout;
7     time_t systime;
8     }page_stat_t;
9    
10     pages_pagein is the number of pages swapped into memory
11     pages_pageout is the number of pages swapped from memory to swap
12    
13     get_page_stats() and get_page_stats_diff() both
14     return a pointer to a static buffer of type page_stat_t
15    
16     get_page_stats() will return the number of pages the system
17     has paged in and out since bootup. get_page_stats_diff()
18     will return the difference since last time it was called.
19     If it has not been called before, it will return get_page_stats()
20    
21     BUGS
22     Solaris doesn't seem to report accurately. It reports the number
23     of pages swapped into memory, not necessarily from swap. This
24     feature isn't deamed entirely reliable :)
