I am new to the linux kernel programming and trying to write some small module programs and understand the working of linux kernel. Hence, was trying to reinvent the wheel but got confused.
Can you please provide some help....
Thanks and Regards,
Prasad.

/proc/<pid>/state tells you about PID, PPID, and state.

Number of open files can be figured out by counting the number of
