NAME

PAPI_get_dmem_info - get information about the dynamic memory usage of the current program

SYNOPSIS

C Interface
 #include <papi.h>
 int PAPI_get_dmem_info(PAPI_dmem_info_t *dmem);
 
Fortran Interface
 #include fpapi.h
 PAPIF_get_dmem_info(C_LONG_LONG(*) dmem, C_INT check)
 

DESCRIPTION

In C, this function takes a pointer to a PAPI_dmem_info_t structure and returns with the structure fields filled in. In Fortran, this function takes a pointer to an array of long_long values and fills in the array on return. A value of PAPI_EINVAL in any field indicates an undefined parameter.

NOTE

This function is currently implemented only for the Linux operating system.

ARGUMENTS

dmem -- Structure (C) or array (Fortran) containing the following values (Fortran values can be accessed using the specified indices):

peak [PAPIF_DMEM_VMPEAK] (Peak size of process image, may be 0 on older Linux systems),

size [PAPIF_DMEM_VMSIZE] (Size of process image),

resident [PAPIF_DMEM_RESIDENT] (Resident set size),

high_water_mark [PAPIF_DMEM_HIGH_WATER] (High water memory usage),

shared [PAPIF_DMEM_SHARED] (Shared memory),

text [PAPIF_DMEM_TEXT] (Memory allocated to code),

library [PAPIF_DMEM_LIBRARY] (Memory allocated to libraries),

heap [PAPIF_DMEM_HEAP] (Size of the heap),

locked [PAPIF_DMEM_LOCKED] (Locked memory),

stack [PAPIF_DMEM_STACK] (Size of the stack)

pagesize [PAPIF_DMEM_PAGESIZE] (Size of a page in bytes),

pte [PAPIF_DMEM_PTE] (Size of page table entries, may be 0 on older Linux systems)

RETURN VALUES

On success, this function returns PAPI_OK with the data structure or array values filled in. On error a negative error value is returned.

ERRORS

PAPI_ESBSTR
The funtion is not implemented for the current substrate.
PAPI_EINVAL
Any value in the structure or array may be undefined as indicated by this error value.
PAPI_SYS
A system error occured.

EXAMPLE

    int retval;
    PAPI_dmem_info_t dmem;
    
    if (PAPI_library_init(PAPI_VER_CURRENT) != PAPI_VER_CURRENT)
    exit(1);
 
    retval = PAPI_library_init(PAPI_VER_CURRENT);
    if (retval != PAPI_VER_CURRENT)
       handle_error(retval);
 
    PAPI_get_dmem_info(&dmem);
    printf("Peak Mem Size:         %lld,dmem.peak);
    printf("Mem Size:              %lld,dmem.size);
    printf("Mem Resident:          %lld,dmem.resident);
    printf("Peak Resident: %lld,dmem.high_water_mark);
    printf("Mem Shared:            %lld,dmem.shared);
    printf("Mem Text:              %lld,dmem.text);
    printf("Mem Library:           %lld,dmem.library);
    printf("Mem Heap:              %lld,dmem.heap);
    printf("Mem Locked:            %lld,dmem.locked);
    printf("Mem Stack:             %lld,dmem.stack);
    printf("Mem Pagesize:          %lld,dmem.pagesize);
    printf("Mem Page Eable Entries:                %lld,dmem.pte);
 

BUGS

If called before PAPI_library_init() the behavior of the routine is undefined.
