Remarks
The underlying function pstat() is provided for backward compatibility. Use of the
pstat_get*()
wrapper functions is recommended (for example, pstat_getproc()
) to avoid the polymorphic typing
of the
union pstun parameter.
The functions
pstat_getlocality()
and pstat_getproclocality() have their own man-
pages. See pstat_getlocality(2) and pstat_getproclocality(2).
DESCRIPTION
The
pstat functions return information about various system contexts. The contents of the various asso-
ciated data structures, structs pst_crashdev, pst_crashinfo
, pst_diskinfo, pst_dynamic,
pst_fileinfo, pst_fileinfo2, pst_filedetails
, pst_ipcinfo, pst_lvinfo,
pst_mpathnode, pst_msginfo,
pst_node, pst_pmqinfo, pst_processor, pst_pseminfo,
pst_pset, pst_seminfo, pst_shminfo, pst_stable, pst_static, pst_status,
pst_socket, pst_stream, pst_swapinfo, pst_vminfo, and pst_vm_status
, are declared in
the header files
<sys/pstat.h>
, and <sys/pstat/*_pstat_body.h>. The headers contain
descriptions of the fields of each of the context data structures.
Summary of Available Contexts
The
pstat routines support the following contexts of information. Detailed descriptions of each routine
follow.
