This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.
The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult
the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior),
or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
NAME
getrusage - get information about resource utilization
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/resource.h>
int getrusage(int who, struct rusage *r_usage);
DESCRIPTION
The getrusage() function shall provide measures of the resources
used by the current process or its terminated and
waited-for child processes. If the value of the who argument
is RUSAGE_SELF, information shall be returned about resources
used by the current process. If the value of the who argument
is RUSAGE_CHILDREN, information shall be returned about
resources used by the terminated and waited-for children of the current
process. If the child is never waited for (for example, if
the parent has SA_NOCLDWAIT set or sets SIGCHLD to SIG_IGN), the resource
information for the child process is discarded and not
included in the resource information provided by getrusage().
The r_usage argument is a pointer to an object of type struct
rusage in which the returned information is
stored.
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, getrusage() shall return 0; otherwise,
-1 shall be returned and errno set to indicate
the error.
ERRORS
The getrusage() function shall fail if:
- EINVAL
-
The value of the who argument is not valid.
The following sections are informative.
EXAMPLES
Using getrusage()
The following example returns information about the resources used
by the current process.
-
#include <sys/resource.h>
...
int who = RUSAGE_SELF;
struct rusage usage;
int ret;
ret = getrusage(who, &usage);
APPLICATION USAGE
None.
RATIONALE
