    • Method Detail

      • mach_host_self

        int mach_host_self()
        The mach_host_self system call returns the calling thread's host name port. It has an effect equivalent to receiving a send right for the host port.
        Returns:
        the host's name port
      • host_page_size

        int host_page_size(int machPort,
                           LongByReference pPageSize)
        The host_page_size function returns the page size for the given host.
        Parameters:
        machPort - The name (or control) port for the host for which the page size is desired.
        pPageSize - The host's page size (in bytes), set on success.
        Returns:
        0 on success; sets errno on failure
      • host_statistics

        int host_statistics(int machPort,
                            int hostStat,
                            Structure stats,
                            IntByReference count)
        The host_statistics function returns scheduling and virtual memory statistics concerning the host as specified by hostStat.
        Parameters:
        machPort - The control port for the host for which information is to be obtained.
        hostStat - The type of statistics desired (HOST_LOAD_INFO, HOST_VM_INFO, or HOST_CPU_LOAD_INFO)
        stats - Statistics about the specified host.
        count - On input, the maximum size of the buffer; on output, the size returned (in natural-sized units).
        Returns:
        0 on success; sets errno on failure
      • host_statistics64

        int host_statistics64(int machPort,
                              int hostStat,
                              Structure stats,
                              IntByReference count)
        The host_statistics64 function returns 64-bit virtual memory statistics concerning the host as specified by hostStat.
        Parameters:
        machPort - The control port for the host for which information is to be obtained.
        hostStat - The type of statistics desired (HOST_VM_INFO64)
        stats - Statistics about the specified host.
        count - On input, the maximum size of the buffer; on output, the size returned (in natural-sized units).
        Returns:
        0 on success; sets errno on failure
      • sysctl

        int sysctl(int[] name,
                   int namelen,
                   Pointer oldp,
                   IntByReference oldlenp,
                   Pointer newp,
                   int newlen)
        The sysctl() function retrieves system information and allows processes with appropriate privileges to set system information. The information available from sysctl() consists of integers, strings, and tables. The state is described using a "Management Information Base" (MIB) style name, listed in name, which is a namelen length array of integers. The information is copied into the buffer specified by oldp. The size of the buffer is given by the location specified by oldlenp before the call, and that location gives the amount of data copied after a successful call and after a call that returns with the error code ENOMEM. If the amount of data available is greater than the size of the buffer supplied, the call supplies as much data as fits in the buffer provided and returns with the error code ENOMEM. If the old value is not desired, oldp and oldlenp should be set to NULL. The size of the available data can be determined by calling sysctl() with the NULL argument for oldp. The size of the available data will be returned in the location pointed to by oldlenp. For some operations, the amount of space may change often. For these operations, the system attempts to round up so that the returned size is large enough for a call to return the data shortly thereafter. To set a new value, newp is set to point to a buffer of length newlen from which the requested value is to be taken. If a new value is not to be set, newp should be set to NULL and newlen set to 0.
        Parameters:
        name - MIB array of integers
        namelen - length of the MIB array
        oldp - Information retrieved
        oldlenp - Size of information retrieved
        newp - Information to be written
        newlen - Size of information to be written
        Returns:
        0 on success; sets errno on failure
      • sysctlbyname

        int sysctlbyname(String name,
                         Pointer oldp,
                         IntByReference oldlenp,
                         Pointer newp,
                         int newlen)
        The sysctlbyname() function accepts an ASCII representation of the name and internally looks up the integer name vector. Apart from that, it behaves the same as the standard sysctl() function.
        Parameters:
        name - ASCII representation of the MIB name
        oldp - Information retrieved
        oldlenp - Size of information retrieved
        newp - Information to be written
        newlen - Size of information to be written
        Returns:
        0 on success; sets errno on failure
      • sysctlnametomib

        int sysctlnametomib(String name,
                            Pointer mibp,
                            IntByReference size)
        The sysctlnametomib() function accepts an ASCII representation of the name, looks up the integer name vector, and returns the numeric representation in the mib array pointed to by mibp. The number of elements in the mib array is given by the location specified by sizep before the call, and that location gives the number of entries copied after a successful call. The resulting mib and size may be used in subsequent sysctl() calls to get the data associated with the requested ASCII name. This interface is intended for use by applications that want to repeatedly request the same variable (the sysctl() function runs in about a third the time as the same request made via the sysctlbyname() function). The number of elements in the mib array can be determined by calling sysctlnametomib() with the NULL argument for mibp. The sysctlnametomib() function is also useful for fetching mib prefixes. If size on input is greater than the number of elements written, the array still contains the additional elements which may be written programmatically.
        Parameters:
        name - ASCII representation of the name
        mibp - Integer array containing the corresponding name vector.
        size - On input, number of elements in the returned array; on output, the number of entries copied.
        Returns:
        0 on success; sets errno on failure
