Bug ID: 106281
Summary: proc(5) is missing MemAvailable documentation for
/proc/meminfo
Product: Documentation
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P1
Component: man-pages
Assignee: documentation_man-pages-ztI5WcYan/vQLgFONoPN62D2FQJk+8+b@public.gmane.org
Reporter: peter-VTkQYDcBqhK7DlmcbJSQ7g@public.gmane.org
Regression: No
The following fields are undocumented in the proc(5) manual page:
DirectMap2M
DirectMap4k
MemAvailable
(noticed because MemAvailable was missing, the others were found using:)
cut -d: -f1 /proc/meminfo > proc.meminfo;
man proc| awk 'p&&/^ *\/proc\/modules/{exit}
p&&/%/{print $1} /meminfo$/{p=1}' > proc.5;
grep -H . proc.5 proc.meminfo | tr : ' ' | sort -k2 | uniq -u -f 1 | sort;
This documentation issue exists in man-pages 4.02, but the current git repo is
also missing these fields. MemAvailable is briefly described in free(1) though
(from procps-ng 3.3.11). It is still missing details, how does it interact with
swap, virtio ballooning, tmpfs, etc.?
