https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106281 Bug ID: 106281 Summary: proc(5) is missing MemAvailable documentation for /proc/meminfo Product: Documentation Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P1 Component: man-pages Assignee: documentation_man-pages@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Reporter: peter@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Regression: No The following fields are undocumented in the proc(5) manual page: DirectMap2M DirectMap4k MemAvailable (noticed because MemAvailable was missing, the others were found using:) cut -d: -f1 /proc/meminfo > proc.meminfo; man proc| awk 'p&&/^ *\/proc\/modules/{exit} p&&/%/{print $1} /meminfo$/{p=1}' > proc.5; grep -H . proc.5 proc.meminfo | tr : ' ' | sort -k2 | uniq -u -f 1 | sort; This documentation issue exists in man-pages 4.02, but the current git repo is also missing these fields. MemAvailable is briefly described in free(1) though (from procps-ng 3.3.11). It is still missing details, how does it interact with swap, virtio ballooning, tmpfs, etc.? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching the assignee of the bug. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-man" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
