Subject: kernel memory usage

I think Naveen means, all the memory does not appear in the output of
/proc/meminfo, the reason is kernel memory is discounted and not
accounted for in the output. May be his goal is to calculate the total
memory in the system and that output of /proc/meminfo does not give
that.
