.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm mincore
|
|
.Nd determine residency of memory pages
|
|
.Sh LIBRARY
|
|
.Lb libc
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In sys/mman.h
|
|
.Ft int
|
|
.Fn mincore "const void *addr" "size_t len" "char *vec"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn mincore
|
|
system call determines whether each of the pages in the region beginning at
|
|
.Fa addr
|
|
and continuing for
|
|
.Fa len
|
|
bytes is resident or mapped, depending on the value of sysctl
|
|
.Va vm.mincore_mapped .
|
|
.\"The beginning address,
|
|
.\".Fa addr ,
|
|
.\"is first rounded down to a multiple of the page size (see
|
|
.\".Xr getpagesize 3 ) .
|
|
.\"The end address,
|
|
.\".Fa addr No + Fa len ,
|
|
.\"is rounded up to a multiple of the page size.
|
|
The status is returned in the
|
|
.Fa vec
|
|
array, one character per page.
|
|
Each character is either 0 if the page is not resident, or a combination of
|
|
the following flags (defined in
|
|
.In sys/mman.h ) :
|
|
.Bl -tag -width ".Dv MINCORE_REFERENCED_OTHER"
|
|
.It Dv MINCORE_INCORE
|
|
Page is in core (resident).
|
|
.It Dv MINCORE_REFERENCED
|
|
Page has been referenced by us.
|
|
.It Dv MINCORE_MODIFIED
|
|
Page has been modified by us.
|
|
.It Dv MINCORE_REFERENCED_OTHER
|
|
Page has been referenced.
|
|
.It Dv MINCORE_MODIFIED_OTHER
|
|
Page has been modified.
|
|
.It Dv MINCORE_PSIND(i)
|
|
Page is part of a large
|
|
.Pq Dq super
|
|
page with size given by index
|
|
.Dv i
|
|
in the array returned by
|
|
.Xr getpagesizes 3 .
|
|
.It Dv MINCORE_SUPER
|
|
A mask of the valid
|
|
.Dv MINCORE_PSIND()
|
|
values.
|
|
If any bits in this mask are set, the page is part of a large
|
|
.Pq Dq super
|
|
page.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The information returned by
|
|
.Fn mincore
|
|
may be out of date by the time the system call returns.
|
|
The only way to ensure that a page is resident is to lock it into memory
|
|
with the
|
|
.Xr mlock 2
|
|
system call.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the
|
|
.Va vm.mincore_mapped
|
|
sysctl is set to a non-zero value (default), only the current process'
|
|
mappings of the pages in the specified virtual address range are examined.
|
|
This does not preclude the system from returning
|
|
.Dv MINCORE_REFERENCED_OTHER
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv MINCORE_MODIFIED_OTHER
|
|
statuses.
|
|
Otherwise, if the sysctl value is zero, all resident pages backing the
|
|
specified address range are examined, regardless of the mapping state.
|
|
.Sh IMPLEMENTATION NOTES
|
|
Prior to the introduction of
|
|
.Dv MINCORE_PSIND()
|
|
in
|
|
.Fx 13.0 ,
|
|
.Dv MINCORE_SUPER
|
|
consisted of a single bit equal to
|
|
.Dv MINCORE_PSIND(1) .
|
|
In particular, applications compiled using the old value of
|
|
.Dv MINCORE_SUPER
|
|
will not identify large pages with size index 2 as being large pages.
|
|

|
|
.Rv -std mincore
|
|
.Sh ERRORS
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn mincore
|
|
system call will fail if:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Er
|
|
.It Bq Er ENOMEM
|
|
The virtual address range specified by the
|
|
.Fa addr
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa len
|
|
arguments is not fully mapped.
|
|
.It Bq Er EFAULT
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa vec
|
|
argument points to an illegal address.
