1.4 |
The statgrab library provides a cross-platform interface to getting |
| 113 |
tdb |
1.1 |
system statistics. Each of the function calls returns a structure |
| 114 |
|
|
containing statistics. See the manual page for each individual |
| 115 |
|
|
function for more details on usage. |
| 116 |

</para> |
| 117 |
|
|
<para> |
| 118 |
ats |
1.4 |
<function>statgrab_init</function> must be the first |
| 119 |
|
|
function you call before you start to use libstatgrab; it performs all |
| 120 |
|
|
the one-time initialisation operations that need setuid/setgid |
| 121 |
pajs |
1.5 |
privileges. For instance, on *BSD it opens a descriptor to be able to |
| 122 |
ats |
1.4 |
read kernel structures later on, and on Solaris it reads the device |
| 123 |
pajs |
1.5 |
mappings that in some cases are only accessible by root (machines with |
| 124 |
|
|
a /dev/osa). Once this has run, the other libstatgrab functions no longer |
| 125 |
|
|
need elevated privileges. It is therefore a good idea to call |
| 126 |
ats |
1.3 |
<function>statgrab_drop_privileges</function>, which discards |
| 127 |
|
|
setuid and setgid privileges, immediately after you call |
| 128 |
|
|
<function>statgrab_init</function>, unless your application has |
| 129 |
|
|
another reason for needing setuid or setgid privileges. |

The library was originally written to support the i-scream central |
| 138 |
|
|
monitoring system, but has since become a standalone package. It |
| 139 |
ats |
1.4 |
has been ported to work on Linux, NetBSD, FreeBSD, Solaris and Cygwin. |
