Subject: Extend shmem proc_meminfo(5)
Date: Fri, 23 May 2025 12:26:17 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250523122617.48cf9feb@max.localdomain> (raw)
Hi Alejandro,
currently shmem in proc_meminfo(5) is described with "Amount of memory consumed in tmpfs(5) filesystems.".
I think, that's incomplete, as the other types of shares memory are missing.
Therefore, I suggest to change this statement to:
"Amount of memory consumed in tmpfs(5) filesystems, System V and POSIX shared memory, as well as shared anonymous mappings (MAP_SHARED|MAP_ANONYMOUS)."
Regards,
Carsten
