hi,
we all know /proc is about the information of active process,
I have just read an artical which said you can use /proc/cpuinfo,
/proc/net./proc/meminfo etc. to know about some hardware
information .But I want to know how to use with command line? (1 Reply)
I did a search on this, but didn't find exactly the answer I'm looking for. What exactly is the proc directory for? Showing processes spawned by users? I ask because I have some very large files in that directory by multiple users and its affecting my disk usage. Can you limit how many... (2 Replies)

hi all !
Please help me
When I select data from oracle with proc * C prog.
I count the number of rows
For example the total rows is 1000000
but the number of result return is a limit number 5000 for ex
So How can I know this limit (5 Replies)
Perhaps this is a very dummy question but sorry I don't know other place to do it. We just buy a new cluster of Xeon machines but there is something I don't understand and perhaps someone can help me.
The more /proc/cpuinfo produces the following output (just part of it).
processor : 0... (1 Reply)
Hi,
I am trying to calculate the CPU Usage by getting the difference between the idle time reported by /proc/stat at 2 different intervals. Now the 4th entry in the first line of /proc/stat will give me the 'idle time'. But I also came across /proc/uptime that gives me 2 entries : 1st one as the... (0 Replies)
So, I'm looking over /proc/cpuinfo and have a question... I've read that "siblings" refers to hyperthreading, but that seems odd considering the contents of cpuinfo. Here's a part:
model name : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5410 @ 2.33GHz
physical id : 0
siblings : 4

If you are adding the kernel module without any module parameter passing, it should print out following information to info1 file so that user can make read access to info1 file (via, for example, cat /proc/info1):
• Processor type
• Kernel version
• Total number of the processes currently... (1 Reply)
Hi,
I wanted to understand what exactly /proc/cpuinfo shows?
We have a machine with following specification...
(2x) Intel Xeon 6-core processors
So, ideally it shouls have 12processors, but the output on /proc/cpuinfo shows 24 processors.
Can someone please explain how this is... (3 Replies)

cpu_need_resched
CPU_NEED_RESCHED(9) BSD Kernel Developer's Manual CPU_NEED_RESCHED(9)NAME
cpu_need_resched -- context switch notification
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/cpu.h>
void
cpu_need_resched(struct cpu_info *ci, int flags);
DESCRIPTION
The cpu_need_resched() function is the machine-independent interface for the scheduler to notify machine-dependent code that a context switch
from the current LWP, on the cpu ci, is required. This event may occur if a higher priority LWP appears on the run queue or if the current
LWP has exceeded its time slice.
If RESCHED_KPREEMPT flag is specified in flags and __HAVE_PREEMPTION C pre-processor macro is defined in <machine/intr.h>, machine-dependent
code should make a context switch happen as soon as possible even if the cpu is running the kernel code.
If RESCHED_IMMED flag is specified in flags, machine-dependent code should make a context switch happen as soon as possible. In that case,
for example, if ci is not the current processor, cpu_need_resched() typically issues an inter processor call to the processor to make it
notice the need of a context switch as soon as possible.
Typically, the cpu_need_resched() function will perform the following operations:
o Set a per-processor flag which is checked by userret(9) when returning to user-mode execution.
o Post an asynchronous software trap (AST).
o Send an inter processor interrupt to wake up cpu_idle(9).
