How can one get cpu id on which the thread is running from user space in executable?

I want to know the definition of traffic accounting

Hello all,

Apologies in advance if it's a stupid question, but I can't find its solution anywhere else. I am trying to shape network traffic on an interface (100Mbps) which should only permit 1.5Mbps bandwidth and has sfq filter attached to it. I have used the following tc qdiscs.

Hi All,

I tried dowloading the linux staging tree through git clone
and in the next step " ketchup `cat ../staging/version`" downloaded few MB of partial kernel to root/.ketchup and while checking for gpg signature it failed.

I have a question about swap. Will swap be used if the process is active and using all of the physical ram?

It was my understanding that swap will _not_ be used if the process is active. We have an application that uses all of the physical ram then gets an OOM error and crashes but we have 4 gb of swap and i just wanted to be sure i am understanding it right or not understanding it right.

I am using a bus adapter to allow access from a VME system to a user shared memory segment. The driver for the adapter can not handle physical addresses above 4GB. Unfortunately, I have 16GB in my system. I would like to force the physical memory addresses returned by shmget() to be below the 4GB boundary.

Having an issue with CentOS 5.1 - after install there is a process called nash-hotplug that is running and consuming 100% of one of my CPU cores (QuadCore Xeon CPU). Seems to be a 'nice' process as it steps out of my way when other apps need all the CPU, but I am struggling to understand what it is.

Hi,I get a trouble when I create a class that's a seal class for string manipulate.
I override an operator ==:
bool operator ==(char *pStr);
and I override other operator (char*):
char* operator(char*)();

When I use the operator == like this:
CMyString strTest;
if(strTest == "OK")
{
return true;
}
else
{
return false;
}

Hello All,
I have a small question regarding the NFS file handles.
Suppose I have a NFS client who has requested for a particular file from the NFS server.Now lets assume that I am using a NFS v2 server. So I get the filehandle for that file and I can use it. Suppose later I upgrade the server to NFS v3,can I use the same file handle which was issued to me by the NFS v2 server?

If you feel frustrated with Linux then just use Windows or MacOS. Linux is not for you.

Don't trust me - please read the GPL and the EULA in parallel :)

Given a sysfs file attribute which was created by sysfs_create_group(), is there a pleasant way of determining which group that was?

Thanks, Steve

Hi

Is it possible to insert a kernel module from C application without calling system (" insmod ...") ?
