Hi all,
I want to calculate the total kernel memory usage.
cat /proc/meminfo

HugePages_Total: 0

HugePages_Rsvd: 0
HugePages_Surp: 0
Hugepagesize: 2048 kB
DirectMap4k: 4096 kB
DirectMap2M: 913408 kB
so I want to know the method by which I can know the amout of memory
kernel is using at any instance of time. How can i find this.
since as far as i know vmallocused =vmalloc allocation+ ioremap. also
ioremap can be allocated multiple times. So is there any method to do
exact calculation.
Thanks
