Hi all,
I want process related information like rss.(we can get this by doing cat /proc/<pid>status) Is there a way to get this from within a kernel module? I checked out the sources on /proc filesystem. They all show how to create, read, write a new proc file. But I want to read from an existing proc file specifically /proc/<pid>/status
I could not find rss info of a process from its task struct in kernel version 3.10.
I tried to look inside kernel to know how and where are these values (rss and all) are calculated by kernel. But I could not track it.
Can anyone please point me to either resources or guide me to accomplish the task of reading information from /proc/files...
I looked up call_usermodehelper but did not find it useful for my need.
Thanks !
