107 * Examining /proc's structure
113 The proc file system acts as an interface to internal data structures in the
117 First, we'll take a look at the read-only parts of /proc. In Chapter 2, we
118 show you how you can use /proc/sys to change settings.
123 The directory /proc contains (among other things) one subdirectory for each

132 open /proc/<pid> file descriptors corresponding to dead processes

217 the ps command. In fact, ps uses the proc file system to obtain its
219 file /proc/PID/status. It fields are described in table 1-2.
230 snapshot of a moment, you can see /proc/<pid>/smaps file and scan page table.

384 The /proc/PID/maps file contains the currently mapped memory regions and
438 The /proc/PID/smaps is an extension based on maps, showing the memory
470 mapping in /proc/PID/maps. Following lines show the size of the mapping
567 Note: reading /proc/PID/maps or /proc/PID/smaps is inherently racy (consistent
579 The /proc/PID/smaps_rollup file includes the same fields as /proc/PID/smaps,

618 Any other value written to /proc/PID/clear_refs will have no effect.
620 The /proc/pid/pagemap gives the PFN, which can be used to find the pageflags
621 using /proc/kpageflags and number of times a page is mapped using
622 /proc/kpagecount. For detailed explanation, see

771 In 2.6.2* /proc/interrupts was expanded again. This time the goal was for
772 /proc/interrupts to display every IRQ vector in use by the system, not
803 Of some interest is the introduction of the /proc/irq directory to 2.4.

1251 The subdirectory /proc/net follows the usual pattern. Table 1-8 shows the

1331 named after the driver for this adapter in /proc/scsi. You'll also see a list

1528 /proc/fs/ext4 based on its device name (i.e., /proc/fs/ext4/hdc or
